show spanning-tree 0

Display the spanning tree group configuration and status of interfaces in the spanning tree group.

Syntax
show spanning-tree 0 [active | brief | guard | interface interface | root | summary]
Parameters
0
Enter 0 (zero) to display information about that specific spanning tree group.
active
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword active to display only active interfaces in spanning tree group 0.
brief
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword brief to display a synopsis of the spanning tree group configuration information.
guard
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword guard to display the type of guard enabled on an STP interface and the current port state.
interface interface
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword interface and the type slot/port of the interface you want displayed. Type slot/port options are the following:
  • For a port-channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then the port-channel ID.
  • For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port[/subport] information.
  • For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
root
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword root to display configuration information on the spanning tree group root.
summary
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword summary to only the number of ports in the spanning tree group and their state.

“Topology flag...”
States whether the topology flag and the detected flag were set.
“Number of...”
Displays the number of topology changes, the time of the last topology change, and on what interface the topology change occurred.
“Timers”
Lists the values for the following bridge timers: hold time, topology change, hello time, max age, and forward delay.
“Times”
List the number of seconds since the last:
  • hello time
  • topology change
  • notification
