How do I enable or disable STP?
ANSWER
To enable STP/RSTP/MSTP/VBST, run the stp enable command in the system view or interface view.
To disable STP/RSTP/MSTP/VBST, run the undo stp enable or stp disable command in the system view or interface view.
1. To enable or disable STP/RSTP/MSTP/VBST on a specific interface, run the corresponding command on the interface. Examples are as follows:
# Enable STP/RSTP/MSTP/VBST on GE0/0/1.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface gigabitethernet 0/0/1
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] stp enable
# Disable STP/RSTP/MSTP/VBST on GE0/0/1.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface gigabitethernet 0/0/1
[HUAWEI-GigabitEthernet0/0/1] undostp enable
