[c-nsp] STP and customer ports

[Insan Praja SW]

Really bad idea.. if you had 2 connection through a single switch, makes sure it 
your switch or managed by you. Or else, use L3 solutions.


Thanks,

Is there any good reason to turn on STP on a switch port to a
customer?  It seems like it could cause more trouble than preventing a
loop.  What's your common practice?  What if you hand off two
connection for redundancy?

I am in the middle of converting to MSTP from a network that didn't
really have any STP design or goals.
