edge bpduguard default
Step 2
This example shows how to enable BPDU Guard on all spanning tree edge ports:
switch#
configure terminal
switch(config)#
spanning-tree port type edge bpduguard default
Enabling BPDU Guard on Specified Interfaces
You can enable BPDU Guard on specified interfaces. Enabling BPDU Guard shuts down the port if it receives
a BPDU.
You can configure BPDU Guard on specified interfaces as follows:
•
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
—
Unconditionally enables BPDU Guard on the interface.
•
spanning-tree bpduguard disable
—
Unconditionally disables BPDU Guard on the interface.
•
no spanning-tree bpduguard
—
Enables BPDU Guard on the interface if it is an operational edge port
and if the
spanning-tree port type edge bpduguard default
command is configured.
