Layer 2 Ethernet interface view, port group view, Layer 2 aggregate interface view
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
enable: Configures the current port(s) as an edge port or edge ports.
disable: Configures the current port(s) as a non-edge port or non-edge ports.
Description
Use the stp edged-port enable command to configure the port(s) as an edge port or ports.
Use the stp edged-port disable command to configure the port(s) as a non-edge port or non-edge ports.
Use the undo stp edged-port command to restore the default.
By default, all ports are non-edge ports.
Configured in Layer 2 Ethernet interface view, the setting takes effect on the current interface only.
Configured in port group view, the setting takes effect on all ports in the port group.
Configured in Layer 2 aggregate interface view, the setting takes effect only on the aggregate interface.
Configured on a member port in an aggregation group, the setting takes effect only after the port leaves
the aggregation group.
If a port directly connects to a user terminal rather than to another switch or a shared LAN segment, this
port is regarded as an edge port. When the network topology changes, an edge port will not cause a
temporary loop. You can enable the port to transition to the forwarding state rapidly by configuring it as
an edge port. H3C recommends that you configure the ports directly connecting to the user terminals as
edge ports.
Configuration BPDUs from other devices usually cannot reach an edge port, because the edge port does
not connect to any other device. If a port receives a configuration BPDU when the BPDU guard function
is disabled, the port functions as a non-edge port, even if you configure it as an edge port.
Among loop guard, root guard and edge port settings, only one function (whichever is configured the
earliest) takes effect on a port at the same time.
