Root Port has been selected. If set, it can cause lack of spanning
tree connectivity. It can be set by a network administrator to
prevent bridges external to a core region of the network
influencing the spanning tree active topology, possibly because
those bridges are not under the full control of the administrator.
This feature is also know as Root Guard.
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 seperately 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.
