Usage Guidelines
Caution Use this command only with the interfaces that connect to end stations; otherwise, an accidental
topology loop could cause a data packet loop and disrupt the Catalyst 4500 series switch and network
operation.
An interface with PortFast mode enabled is moved directly to the spanning-tree forwarding state when
linkup occurs without waiting for the standard forward-time delay.
You can enable PortFast mode on individual interfaces using the spanning-tree portfast (interface
configuration mode) command.
Examples This example shows how to globally enable PortFast by default on all access ports:
Switch(config)# spanning-tree portfast default
Switch(config)#
