Thanks to all that have replied.
I have tried to use the CLI and Web Interface but to no avail.
the MC has been set to be controlled by a MM.
this is the response I get from the MC in CLI
(Aruba7008) ^(config) #no spanning-tree
(Aruba7008) ^(config) #exit
(Aruba7008) ^#show spanning-tree
Spanning Tree is executing the IEEE compatible Rapid Spanning Tree protocol
Bridge Identifier has priority 32768, address 20:4c:03:21:ad:0c
Configured hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
We are the root of the spanning tree
Topology change flag is not set , detected flag not set , changes 1
Times: hold 1, topology change 35 hello 2, max age 20, forward delay 15
Timers: hello 0, notification 0
Last topology change: 0 days, 19 hours, 27 mins, 53 secs
would it work if I factory reset the MC.
then disabled the Spanning Tree and then set it to be controlled by the MM or would the spanning tree be re-enabled?
