RSTPLIB is based on something pretty close to the draft standard
802.1w-2001. (RSTPLIB is a bit older than 2001, but it is mostly the
same.) This is reasonably interoperable with other RSTP
implementations. The 802.1D-2004 bridge standard incorporates the
802.1w-2001 standard but with some further changes.
