Spanning Tree Commands
Default Configuration
Portfast mode is disabled by default.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
User Guidelines
This command only applies to access ports.
NOTE:
This command should be used with care. An interface with
PortFast mode enabled is moved directly to the spanning tree forwarding
state when linkup occurs without waiting for the standard forward-time delay.
Setting a port connected to another switch into PortFast mode may cause an
accidental topology loop and disrupt switch and network operations.
Example
The following example enables Portfast mode on all access ports.
console(config)#spanning-tree portfast default
spanning-tree port-priority (Interface
Configuration)
Use the
spanning
-tree port-priority command in Interface Configuration
mode to configure the priority value of an edge-port or point-to-point
interface to allow the operator to select the relative importance of the
interface in the selection process for forwarding. Set this value to a lower
number to prefer an operationally enabled interface for forwarding of frames.
Use the no form of the command to return the priority to the default value.
Syntax
spanning-tree [vlan
vlan-id
] port-priority
