#1428770 — rstpd implementation

Hi,

When looking for an RSTP daemon I found Stephen Hemminger's 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/rstp.git 
<https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/rstp#zSoyz>
with it's last commit from October 2011.

Is this implementation still in good use by anybody - or has it been 
replaced/superseded by another implementation?

Any hints are welcome.

Cheers,
Philipp

I don't know and when you get into user space daemons they aren't much
talked about on the kernel lists.  That said you will likely fair better
on the netdev list (cc'd).

The current one I recommend is the MSTPd done by Cumulus
 https://sourceforge.net/p/mstpd/wiki/Home/
But like all projects they could use help

Thank's a lot to Eric and Stephen for your answers.
In the meantime I also found https://github.com/ocedo/mstpd
