Do Airports have 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol?

First, welcome to the discussions.
The reason that Airport doesn't support d protacall is because of rules and laws imposed by the different countries.Below is the Standard for 802.11d protocall.
IEEE 802.11d Standard
IEEE 802.11d is supplementary to the Media Access Control (MAC) layer in 802.11 to promote worldwide use of 802.11 WLANs. It will allow access points to communicate information on the permissible radio channels with acceptable power levels for user devices. The 802.11 standards cannot legally operate in some countries; the purpose of 11d is to add features and restrictions to allow WLANs to operate within the rules of these countries. Comments: In countries where the physical layer radio requirements are different from those in North America, the use of WLANs is lagging behind. Equipment manufacturers do not want to produce a wide variety of country-specific products and users that travel do not want a bag full of country-specific WLAN PC cards. The outcome will be country-specific firmware solutions.

If you read more carefully you will see that the answer is exactly what I posted you are talking about 80211D as in DOG This is the protocal that is different than 802.11 B as in bumbleBee.

There is a difference between

802.1d - there is a single 1

and

802.11d - there are two 1s

BOTH end in d, but they are different things.

802.1d - 802.1D is the IEEE MAC Bridges standard which includes Bridging, Spanning Tree, interworking for 802.11 and others. It is standardized by the IEEE 802.1 working group.

802.11d - The IEEE 802.11d standard is also referred to as the Global Harmonization standard. It is used in countries where systems using other standards in the IEEE 802.11 family are not allowed to operate.

iFelix, I appreciate your input. I did realize what you explained , I foolishly wrote the response incorrectly but after all was said and done, my explination about the fact that the protocall was different in some countries and that was the reason the AEBS or the AE wouldn't support the 802.1d protocall.
If this is wrong please feel free to set me straight.

The 802.1d standard is the same for all countries, you are referring to 802.11d

The question is about 802.1d and NOT 802.11d

I have no idea why the Airport does not support the 802.1d standard hence why I didn't initially reply to this thread.

I am sorry I wrote in my first response 802.11d instead of 802.1d my mistake that's where the confusion was. Don

Which (main) router do you have?

This is a user to user support forum, there are no Apple reps.
