address learned by the bridge is made permanent, the address will not age out
and most importantly will not migrate to another interface.
This can be used to stop mac address poisoning or clients roaming in much the

RSTP provides faster spanning tree convergence, the protocol will exchange

without creating loops. The code will default to RSTP mode but will downgrade
any port connected to a legacy STP network so is fully backward compatible.
