About Disabling FSPF for Specific Interfaces
You can disable the FSPF protocol for selected interfaces. By default, FSPF is enabled on all E ports and
TE ports. This default can be disabled by setting the interface as passive.
Note FSPF must be enabled at both ends of the interface for the protocol to work.
