z
With BPDU guard disabled, when a port set as an edge port receives a BPDU from another port, it
will become a non-edge port again. To restore the edge port, re-enable it.
z
If a port directly connects to a user terminal, configure it as an edge port and enable BPDU guard
for it. This enables the port to transition to the forwarding state fast while ensuring network security.
Configuration example
# Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to be an edge port.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
[Sysname-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] stp edged-port enable
Setting the Link Type of a Port to P2P
A point-to-point link is a link directly connecting two devices. If the two ports across a point-to-point link
are root ports or designated ports, the ports can rapidly transition to the forwarding state after a
proposal-agreement handshake process.
Configuration procedure
Follow these steps to set the type of a connected link to P2P:

Optional
The default setting is
auto
;
namely the port automatically
detects whether its link is
point-to-point.
