HP ProCurve RSTP

Hi,

i have two hp procurve 2824 switches, this two should provide a failover. I can't set up a full stack with this model so stacking is only for configuration.

Anyway, i configured RSTP on both switches:

​

So is that configuration ok?

Should the Designated Bridge on SW2 on Port 1-2,9 the 000f20-8c5d00 or 000f20-e02ec0 MAC?

​

Thanks for advice!
