A method may include receiving a reconfiguration to a first Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)/spanning tree table, where the first VLAN/spanning tree table has a first identifier and is associated with a region of a network; updating the first VLAN/spanning tree table to generate a second VLAN/spanning tree table based on the reconfiguration; determining a second identifier of the second VLAN/spanning tree table; and generating a list of identifiers associated with the region of the network, the list including the first identifier and the second identifier.

Configuring networks including spanning trees

A network element may include a connectivity fault manager, associated with a particular interface, to detect a connectivity fault associated with the particular interface, associated with a link between the particular interface and a remote interface, or associated with the remote interface. The network element may further include a redundant trunk group daemon, associated with the particular interface, to deactivate the particular interface and activate a backup interface in response to receiving notification of a link down event associated with the particular interface; where the connectivity fault manager is to activate the redundant trunk group daemon in response to detecting the connectivity fault; and where the redundant trunk group daemon is to deactivate the particular interface and activate a backup interface in response to being activated by the connectivity fault manager.
