The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) prevents network failures by establishing a loop-free topology for layer two bridging devices. Bridges send Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) to each other to share information and recalculate the topology when changes occur. The protocol was developed by DEC and incorporated into the IEEE 802.1D standard. Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol […]
Disc spanning is a feature that splits files to fill two or more CDs or DVDs, making it easier to burn to multiple media. It’s a common feature but not included in all burning programs. It divides files into groups and may divide large files into sections. Its purpose is to make burning easier for […]
