I would document this as a caveat and move on. I wouldn't expect many people to use FRR as a layer-2 switch, and not having STP with VXLAN/EVPN only speeds up the lab start time (no need to wait 30 seconds). Also: https://serverfault.com/questions/824621/linux-bridges-vlans-and-rstp -- I don't want to be anywhere near that quagmire. |

The Cumulus implementation of vlans uses a single VLAN-aware Linux bridge that runs STP. FRR containers create a bridge per vlan for which stp is off, and hence they cannot be used in topologies containing loops
Should we add a flag to the vlan module to enable STP, or a separate
stp
module? Or do we prefer "use Cumulus if you need STP support"?Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
