Auto-bind on Spanning Tree Protocol Domain for Auto-provisioned VLANs

Version 32.5 modifies a Zero Touch Provisioning – Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (ZTPDHCP) script to enable auto-bind on Spanning Tree Protocol Domain (STPD) "s0" for auto-provisioned Virtual Local Area Networks (VLAN). This allows the newly created VLAN(s) to participate in “s0” along with the default VLAN.

The ZTPDHCP script enables auto-bind by calling the following CLI command for every VLAN it creates:

enable stpd s0 auto-bind [ {vlan} vid

If during ZTP the path to a DHCP server uses a tagged port, then the ZTPDHCP script auto-provisions a corresponding VLAN and adds the tagged port. This removes the port from STP Domain "s0", which may result in a network loop. Enabling auto-bind for the auto-provisioned VLAN on STPD "s0" provides loop protection.

The log file generated by the ZTPDHCP script logs the event whenever auto-bind is enabled on STPD “s0” for a newly created VLAN.
