Specifying Whether the
Link Connected to a Port
Is Point-to-point Link
A point-to-point link directly connects two switches. If the roles of the two ports at
the two ends of a point-to-point link meet certain criteria, the two ports can turn
to the forwarding state rapidly by exchanging synchronization packets, thus
reducing the forward delay.
You can determine whether or not the link connected to a port is a point-to-point
link in one of the following two ways.
Specify whether the link connected to a port is point-to-point link in
system view
Specify whether the link connected to a port is point-to-point link in
Ethernet port view

■
If you configure the link connected to a port in an aggregation group as a
point-to-point link, the configuration will be synchronized to the rest ports in
the same aggregation group.
■
If an auto-negotiating port operates in full duplex mode after negotiation, you
can configure the link of the port as a point-to-point link.
After you configure the link of a port as a point-to-point link, the configuration
applies to all the spanning tree instances the port belongs to. If the actual physical
