Enabling Loop Guard
You can use loop guard to prevent alternate or root ports from becoming designated ports because of a failure
that leads to a unidirectional link. This feature is most effective when it is configured on the entire switched
network. Loop guard operates only on interfaces that are considered point-to-point by the spanning tree.
You cannot enable both loop guard and root guard at the same time.Note
You can enable this feature if your switch is running PVST+, Rapid PVST+, or MSTP.
This procedure is optional. Follow these steps to enable loop guard on the switch.
