Hello,

Port states are redefined in RSTP.

Port states are simplified from five types to three types. Based on whether a port forwards user traffic and learns MAC addresses, the port is in one of the following states:

  • If a port neither forwards user traffic nor learns MAC addresses, the port is in the Discarding state.

  • If a port does not forward user traffic but learns MAC addresses, the port is in the Learning state.

  • If a port forwards user traffic and learns MAC addresses, the port is in the Forwarding state.

Glad to help you! Any further questions, let us know.
