disable stpd ports
ExtremeWare Software 7.3.0 Command Reference Guide 1029
disable stpd ports
disable stpd <spanning tree name> ports {<portlist>}
Description
Disables STP on one or more ports for a given STPD.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
Disabling STP on one or more ports puts those ports in forwarding state; all Bridge Protocol Data Units
(BPDUs) received on those ports will be disregarded and dropped.
The
portlist
keyword is optional. You do not need to indicate a list of ports if you want to disable STP
on all ports in the STPD.
On a modular switch,
<portlist>
can be a list of slots and ports. On a stand-alone switch,
<portlist>
can be one or more port numbers. For a detailed explanation of port specification, see “Modular Switch
Numerical Ranges” or “Stand-alone Switch Numerical Ranges” in Chapter 1.
You must create one or more STP domains, configure, and enable an STPD before you can use the
disable stpd ports
command.
Example
The following command disables port 4 on an STPD named Backbone_st on a stand-alone switch:
disable stpd backbone_st ports 4
The following command disables slot 2, port 4 on an STPD named Backbone_st on a modular switch:
disable stpd backbone_st ports 2:4
