Enumeration
Port Roles are assigned according to whether the port is to be part
of the active topology connecting the Bridge to the Root Bridge
(a Root Port) or connecting a LAN through the Bridge to the Root
Bridge (a Designated Port), or is an Alternate or Backup Port that
may provide connectivity if other Bridges, Bridge Ports, or LANs
fail or are removed.
- ROOT. The Bridge Port on each Bridge receiving the frames on
the least cost path from the Root Bridge is assigned the role
of Root Port for that Bridge (the Root Bridge does not have a
Root Port).
- DESIGNATED. The Bridge Port on the Designated Bridge that is
connected to the LAN is assigned the role of Designated Port
for that LAN.
- ALTERNATE. An Alternate Port offers an alternate path in the
direction of the Root Bridge to that provided by the Bridge's
own Root Port, whereas a Backup Port acts as a backup for the
path provided by a Designated Port in the direction of the
leaves of the Spanning Tree.
- BACKUP. Backup Ports exist only where there are two or more
connections from a given Bridge to a given LAN; hence, they
(and the Designated Ports that they back up) can only exist
where two ports are connected together in loopback by a point
to point link, or where the Bridge has two or more connections
to a shared media LAN segment.
