Re: FWSM - STP

Thanks for the reply but I didn't formulate my question in the right way, i think : i know you can disable STP's (and i know how), but what i really wanted to know was, is STP is needed on these interconnecting vlans or not ? If there
is a specific reason why STP should stay on on this vlans ? I know the
connection between router en FWSM is a 6 Gig etherchannel, but i can't find note in the doc if STP should be on/off on this vlan.

Does anyone knows if i can disable STP on the vlan connecting router
and FWSM module in a 65xx ? It seems that spanning-tree is enable by
default on this vlan and we are trying to minimize the number of STP
instances on our router.



You can do it with;

s1(config)#no spanning-tree vlan ?
  WORD  vlan range, example: 1,3-5,7,9-11
