    [BRIDGE]: use llc for receiving STP packets · cf0f02d0
    Stephen Hemminger authored Mar 20, 2006
    
    
    Use LLC for the receive path of Spanning Tree Protocol packets.
    This allows link local multicast packets to be received by
    other protocols (if they care), and uses the existing LLC
    code to get STP packets back into bridge code.
    
    The bridge multicast address is also checked, so bridges using
    other link local multicast addresses are ignored. This allows
    for use of different multicast addresses to define separate STP
    domains.
