Thanks bharani, I thought this, but neither Switch1 or Switch2 is
the root bridge:
Switch1:#sh spanning-tree
Spanning tree 1 is executing the IEEE compatible Spanning Tree protocol
Bridge Identifier has priority 32768, address 0005.5e0c.57b6
Configured hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
Current root has priority 32768, address 0002.fd3c.18c1
Root port is 40, cost of root path is 23
Topology change flag not set, detected flag not set, changes 113816
Times: hold 1, topology change 35, notification 2
hello 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
Timers: hello 0, topology change 0, notification 0
Switch2:
Switch2#sh spanning-tree
Spanning tree 1 is executing the IEEE compatible Spanning Tree protocol
Bridge Identifier has priority 32768, address 0005.5e0c.c5b5
Configured hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
Current root has priority 32768, address 0002.fd3c.18b5
Root port is 35, cost of root path is 42
Topology change flag not set, detected flag not set, changes 113815
Times: hold 1, topology change 35, notification 2
hello 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
Timers: hello 0, topology change 0, notification 0
what do you think?? One of them could be the designated bridge, but
it doesn't explain why one port is in forwarding and the port in front of it
is in blockin. I think that our friend Fred is right. If
you can break the ring in one point, why break it in two points??
Thanks.
