Re: Root Bridges in PVST..

Intra vlan traffic can go thru the root bridge depending on were
clients assigned to the vlan in question are located , if the clients
communicating span multiple switches that make up the spanning tree
topology then intra vlan traffic has to flow thru the root bridge for
the hosts to communicate the same goes for mst.
