This allows to:

  • bridge multiple switches and add redundant links. STP is used to avoid
    bridge loops.
  • connect end-devices into the same L2 segment as applications running
    on the edge node (without having to use external switch).
    VLAN access ports are now supported not only for application VIFs,
    but also for physical device network ports.
    BPDU guards prevent end-devices to participate in STP.
