  • 1.  NetEdit fails to set spanning-tree mode

    Posted Feb 27, 2020 05:39 AM

    Hi there,

     

    If my switch config has "spanning-tree mode rpvst", configuration validation always fails and it is not possible to make any change with NetEdit. The error is the following:

     

    "cannot configure the rpvst mode, disable spanning-tree (or change) the mode., Invalid input: spanning-tree".

     

    The configuration is running on the switch currently without issues. I just made some changes to other parts of the config (aaa) but can't deploy them.

     

    Any idea how to overcome this error?

     

    Regards

    Hello,

    Good day!

    Just tried configuring "spanning-tree mode rpvst" and unconfiguring "no no spanning-tree mode rpvst", both validation works fine.

    am I missing something from your description?

    Try:

     

    spanning-tree
    spanning-tree mode rpvst

     

    It fails for me every time.

    Even with "deploy solution > Add and Remove configuration" I always get:

     

    Cannot configure the rpvst mode, disable spanning-tree to configure (or change) the mode., Invalid input: spanning-tree

     

    If I set spanning tree mode on switches CLI, it will also fail. I must do the following instead:

     

    no spanning-tree
    spanning-tree mode rpvst
    spanning-tree

     

    But them as soon as I get "spanning-tree mode rpvst" on my configs, NetEdit becomes worthless. Can't do anything with it.

    I always have to remove that line, validate and commit the plan, and go back to the switches and reapply the spanning tree mode.

     

    I'm getting this error even with a clean install of NetEdit 2.0.2 and a bare 6300M config (AOSCX 10.04.0030).

    This is a known limitation and product management is aware.

    You have to proceed with 2 consecutive changes for time being.
