Avaya ERS4526 Trap: RSTP Topology Change

[Thuy_Vu]

Hi,

ERS4526 which is access switch, only connect end user and two links to Core Switch. Two links are always up. Switch have logs about "Trap: RSTP Topology Change" when Link Up Trap for Unit/Port.

I try to enable edge-port and bpdu-filtering on interfaces which connect to end user (4/22, 3/5). But it still appear when Link up Trap, then Trap: RSTP Topology Change.

Question:
1. Why do "Trap: RSTP Topology Change" appear when interface up/down, although interface connect end user?
2. How to disable Trap RSTP Topology Change?

! Base model = Ethernet Routing Switch 4526GTX
! Base Software version = v5.4.0.008

Hi,

I use "spanning-tree rstp port 2/1-23 edge-port true" command. Is it right?
Thanks,

[Vali_Ene]

You said you are configuring the end station ports as edge ports. Do those ports appear as edge also at operational level?
