ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
1191
configure stpd ports edge-safeguard disable
configure stpd <stpd_name> ports edge-safeguard disable <port_list>
Description
Disables the edge safeguard loop prevention on the specified RSTP or MSTP edge port.
Syntax Description
Default
By default, this feature is disabled.
Usage Guidelines
This command applies only to ports that have already been configured as edge ports.
Loop prevention and detection on an edge port configured for RSTP or MSTP is called “edge
safeguard.” An edge port configured with edge safeguard immediately enters the forwarding state and
transmits BPDUs.
If you disable this feature, the edge port enters the forwarding state but no longer transmits BPDUs
unless a BPDU is received by that edge port. This is the default behavior.
To view the status of the edge safeguard feature use the
show stpd <stpd_name> ports {[detail |
<port_list> {detail}]}
command. You can also use the
show stpd {<stpd_name> | detail}
command to display the STPD configuration on the switch, including the enable/disable state for edge
safeguard.
To enable or re-enabled edge safeguard, use one of the following commands:
●
configure stpd <stpd_name> ports edge-safeguard enable <port_list>
●
configure stpd <stpd_name> ports link-type [[auto | broadcast | point-to-point]
<port_list> | edge <port_list> {edge-safeguard [enable | disable]}]
Example
The following command disables edge safeguard on RSTP edge port 4 in STPD s1 on a stand-alone
switch:
configure stpd s1 ports edge-safeguard disable 4
The following command disables edge safeguard on the RSTP edge port on slot 2, port 3 in STPD S1 on
a modular switch:
configure stpd s1 ports edge-safeguard disable 2:3
stpd_name
Specifies an STPD name on the switch.
port_list
Specifies one or more edge ports.
