Disable MSTP on
the port
stp disable
Optional
By default, MSTP is enabled on
all ports after you enable MSTP
in system view.
To enable a switch to operate
more flexibly, you can disable
MSTP on specific ports. As
MSTP-disabled ports do not
participate in spanning tree
calculation, this operation
saves CPU resources of the
switch.
Other MSTP-related settings can take effect only after MSTP is enabled on the switch.
II. Configuration example
# Enable MSTP on the switch and disable MSTP on Ethernet 1/0/1.
1) Perform this configuration in system view
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] stp enable
[Sysname] stp interface Ethernet 1/0/1 disable
2) Perform this configuration in Ethernet port view
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] stp enable
[Sysname] interface Ethernet 1/0/1
[Sysname-Ethernet1/0/1] stp disable
