User Guidelines

accidental topology loop could cause a data packet loop and disrupt switch and network
operations.
Example
The following example enables PortFast on g5 .
spanning-tree link-type
The spanning-tree link-type Interface Configuration mode command overrides the default link-
type setting. To reset the default, use the
no form of this command.
Syntax

•

User Guidelines
• The switch derives the link type of a port from the duplex mode. A full-duplex port is
considered a point-to-point link, and a half-duplex port is considered a shared link.
Example
The following example enables shared spanning-tree on g5 .
Console(config)# interface ethernet g5
Console(config-if)# spanning-tree portfast
Console(config)# interface ethernet g5
Console(config-if)# spanning-tree link-type shared
