Figure 20-3 UplinkFast Example Before Direct Link Failure
If Switch C detects a link failure on the currently active link L2 on the root port (a direct link failure),
UplinkFast unblocks the blocked interface on Switch C and transitions it to the forwarding state without
going through the listening and learning states, as shown in
Figure 20-4 . This change takes
approximately 1 to 5 seconds.

Understanding Cross-Stack UplinkFast
For Catalyst 3750-E switches, the UplinkFast feature is the cross-stack UplinkFast feature. Cross-stack
UplinkFast (CSUF) provides a fast spanning-tree transition (fast convergence in less than 1 second under
normal network conditions) across a switch stack. During the fast transition, an alternate redundant link
on the switch stack is placed in the forwarding state without causing temporary spanning-tree loops or
loss of connectivity to the backbone. With this feature, you can have a redundant and resilient network
in some configurations. CSUF is automatically enabled when you enable the UplinkFast feature by using
the
spanning-tree uplinkfast global configuration command.
CSUF might not provide a fast transition all the time; in these cases, the normal spanning-tree transition
occurs, completing in 30 to 40 seconds. For more information, see the
“Events that Cause Fast
Convergence” section on page 20-7 .
