Restricted TCN
If enabled, causes the port not to propagate received topology change
notifications and topology changes to other ports. If set it can cause
temporary loss of connectivity after changes in a spanning trees active
topology as a result of persistent incorrectly learned station location
information. It is set by a network administrator to prevent bridges
external to a core region of the network, causing address flushing in
that region, possibly because those bridges are not under the full
control of the administrator or is the physical link state for the
attached LANs transitions frequently.
Point2Point
Controls whether the port connects to a point-to-point LAN rather
than a shared medium. This can be automatically determined, or
forced either true or false. Transition to the forwarding state is
faster for point-to-point LANs than for shared media.

MSTI Ports
This page allows the user to inspect the current STP MSTI port configurations, and possibly change them as well.
A MSTI port is a virtual port, which is instantiated separately for each active CIST (physical) port for each MSTI
instance configured and applicable for the port. The MSTI instance must be selected before displaying actual MSTI
port configuration options. This page contains MSTI port settings for physical and aggregated ports. The
aggregation settings are stack global.
