STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) Overvew
STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) is a protocol used in network bridges and switches to prevent loops in a network topology. It works by creating a tree-like structure of network paths, with a single designated root bridge at the top.
STP blocks redundant paths in the network to prevent loops, which can cause broadcast storms and network congestion. When a link failure occurs, STP automatically recalculates the network topology and selects a new path.
