24 protocol. This protocol is used for finding the shortest path between
25 two ethernets, and for eliminating loops from the topology. As this
26 protocol is a standard, linux bridges will interwork properly with
27-other third party bridge products. Bridges communicate with eachother
28+other third party bridge products. Bridges communicate with each other
