Networking::STPModeType

Introduced : BIG-IP_v9.0
A list of Spanning Tree Protocol modes. The difference between STP_MODE_TYPE_DISABLED and STP_MODE_TYPE_PASSTHROUGH is that the pass-through mode forwards spanning tree bridge protocol data units (BPDUs) received on any interface to all other interfaces, whereas the disabled mode discards them.
