Purpose
Command or Action
If this is a 10G breakout port, the
slot
/
port
syntax
is
QSFP-module
/
port
.
Note
Enables or disables BPDU Filtering for the specified
spanning tree edge interface. By default, BPDU Filtering is
disabled.
switch(config-if)#
spanning-tree
bpdufilter
{
enable
|
disable
}
Step 3
(Optional)
Disables BPDU Filtering on the interface.
switch(config-if)#
no
spanning-tree bpdufilter
Step 4
Enables BPDU Filtering on the interface if the
interface is an operational spanning tree edge port
and if you enter the
spanning-tree port type edge
bpdufilter default
command.
Note
This example shows how to explicitly enable BPDU Filtering on the Ethernet spanning tree edge port 1/4:
switch#
configure terminal
switch (config)#
interface ethernet 1/4
switch(config-if)#
spanning-tree bpdufilter enable
Enabling Loop Guard Globally
You can enable Loop Guard globally by default on all point-to-point spanning tree normal and network ports.
Loop Guard does not run on edge ports.
Loop Guard provides additional security in the bridge network. Loop Guard prevents alternate or root ports
from becoming the designated port because of a failure that could lead to a unidirectional link.
Entering the Loop Guard command for the specified interface overrides the global Loop Guard command.
Note
Before You Begin
Ensure that STP is configured.
Ensure that you have spanning tree normal ports or have configured some network ports.
Procedure
Purpose
Command or Action
Enters global configuration mode.
switch#
configure terminal
Step 1
Enables Loop Guard by default on all spanning tree
normal and network ports. By default, global Loop
Guard is disabled.
switch(config)#
spanning-tree
loopguard default
