Configuring Optional Spanning-Tree Features
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to globally enable the BPDU filtering feature.
This procedure is optional.
To disable BPDU filtering, use the no spanning-tree portfast bpdufilter default global configuration
command.
You can override the setting of the no spanning-tree portfast bpdufilter default global configuration
command by using the spanning-tree bpdufilter enable interface configuration command.
Enabling UplinkFast for Use with Redundant Links
UplinkFast cannot be enabled on VLANs that have been configured for switch priority. To enable
UplinkFast on a VLAN with switch priority configured, first restore the switch priority on the VLAN to
the default value by using the no spanning-tree vlan vlan-id priority global configuration command.
Note When you enable UplinkFast, it affects all VLANs on the switch. You cannot configure UplinkFast on
an individual VLAN.
You can enable the UplinkFast feature for rapid PVST+ or for the MSTP, but the feature remains disabled
(inactive) until you change the spanning-tree mode to PVST+.
