We recently aquired an STP implementation in if_bridge, but not RSTP. It's not immediatly clear to me how a host would use RSTP for redundency. I suppose you could use a virtual interface and two ports that pretended to be switch ports that talked RSTP? If RSTP were added to if_bridge, I think that would be easy to do. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
