Instance Method Details

#configuration_identifierString

Gets the configuration identifier name in a spanning tree region, used to identify a group of adjacent bridges with identical configuration name, configuration revision levels, and assignments of VLANs to spanning tree instances. This setting is used only when the STP mode is MSTP, however the user may set it in any STP mode.

Returns:

  • (String)

Raises:

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::AccessDenied)

    raised if the client credentials are not valid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::InvalidArgument)

    raised if one of the arguments is invalid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::OperationFailed)

    raised if an operation error occurs.

#configuration_revisionlong

Gets the configuration revision level of the MSTP configuration. It’s used only when the STP mode is MSTP, however, the user may set it in any STP mode.

Returns:

  • (long)

Raises:

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::AccessDenied)

    raised if the client credentials are not valid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::InvalidArgument)

    raised if one of the arguments is invalid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::OperationFailed)

    raised if an operation error occurs.

#forward_delaylong

Gets the forward delay parameter, which controls how long an interface was blocked from forwarding network traffic after a reconfiguration of the spanning tree topology. The default valu is 15 seconds, and the valid range is 4-30 seconds. Note that this parameter has no effect when the STP mode is RSPT or MSTP, as long as all bridges in the spanning tree use the RSTP or MSTP protocol.

Raises:

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::AccessDenied)

    raised if the client credentials are not valid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::InvalidArgument)

    raised if one of the arguments is invalid.

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::OperationFailed)

    raised if an operation error occurs.

Raises:

  • (IControl::IControl::Common::AccessDenied)

    raised if the client credentials are not valid.
