mstpGenCapable
Module: FORCE10-MSTP-MIB
OID (symbolic): FORCE10-MSTP-MIB::mstpGenCapable
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.20.2.10.19
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: An indication of wheter the Bridge supports 'maximum' level Spanning Tree Protocol. The value nonStp(0) indicates, the Bridge doesn't support any Spanning Tree Protocol. The value 'dot1d1998(1)' indicates the Spanning Tree Protocol specified in EEE 802.1D-1998, 'dot1w(2)' indicates the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol specified in IEEE Std 802.1w, 'dot1d2004' indicates IEEE Std 802.1D-2004 and 'dot1s(4) means MSTP IEEE Std 802.1s.
What is mstpGenCapable?
This read-only OID reports the highest spanning-tree protocol variant the bridge supports, such as nonStp, dot1d1998 (classic STP), dot1w (RSTP), dot1d2004, or dot1s (MSTP). An admin checks this when auditing mixed-vendor networks to confirm a device can actually participate in MSTP rather than falling back to legacy STP.
