RE: STP access port start-up delay or intialization to

Anbu,

Thanks for the replay, I understand those phases on paper. What I'm trying to
figure out when this actually happens and what type of wording in a question
might key me to take into account. For example, the ASET lab asks this:

Configure switch 1 as the STP root and set the following parameters:

* Root priority of zero (0)

* An access port start-up delay, due to Spanning Tree, of 32 seconds.

Which in this case means set the forward-time to 16 seconds and priority of
associated VLANs to 0. What I'm trying to figure out is when I need to
account for blocking as well.

delay

From blocking to listening - 20 Sec
           Listening to Learning - 15 sec
           Learning to Forwarding - 15 sec

So total 50 sec.

Hello,

I was going through some of the ASET exams and I was wondering if someone
might have some insight on key word detection for an STP question. What
wording would key you into accounting for blocking time when taking a port
from <state described in question> to forwarding?

Thanks,
