Required
The maximum
transmitting speed of all
Ethernet ports on a switch
defaults to 10.
As the maximum transmitting speed parameter determines the number of the
configuration BPDUs transmitted in each hello time, set it to a proper value to prevent
MSTP from occupying too many network resources. The default value is
recommended.
III. Configuration example
# Set the maximum transmitting speed of Ethernet 1/0/1 to 15.
1)
Configure the maximum transmitting speed in system view
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] stp interface Ethernet1/0/1 transmit-limit 15
2)
Configure the maximum transmitting speed in Ethernet port view
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface Ethernet1/0/1
[Sysname-Ethernet1/0/1] stp transmit-limit 15
1.3.12 Configuring the Current Port as an Edge Port
Edge ports are ports that neither directly connects to other switches nor indirectly
connects to other switches through network segments. After a port is configured as an
edge port, the rapid transition mechanism is applicable to the port. That is, when the
port changes from the blocking state to the forwarding state, it does not have to wait for
a delay.
