My last post talked about many details of the Spanning Tree Protocol. While I did my best to explain how it works using carefully selected words, sometimes videos are just better.

Some keywords that are mentioned in this video are STP, Bridge ID, Bridge Priority, MAC Address, Bridge Protocol Data Unit, Root Bridge, Root Port, Non-Root Bridge, Designated ports.
