Abstract:
An STP warm reboot system includes first switch device(s) including first switch ports, and a second switch device including second switch ports linked to respective first switch ports. During a warm reboot, the second switch device blocks designated-state second switch ports that are linked to first switch ports that have either an alternate role or a discarding state, redirects BPDUs identifying a designated peer port role and received on designated-state second switch ports from their respective linked first switch ports back to those first switch ports, and identifies topology change notification(s) received on the second switch ports. Subsequent to the warm reboot process, the second switch device reprograms the second switch ports that have experienced a state change during the warm reboot, and sends a topology change notification based on the identification of the topology state change notification received by the second switch ports during the warm reboot.

Claim (Index 19):
The method of  claim 14 , further comprising:\n flushing, subsequent to the warm reboot by the first switch device, a Media Access Control (MAC) address table prior to sending the topology change notification(s).
