Huawei AR550 Series - Setting the Link Type of a Port

By default, the maximum number of connections affecting the bandwidth of an Eth-Trunk is
8.

7.6.2.5 Setting the Link Type of a Port
Context
It is easy to implement rapid convergence on a P2P link. If the two ports connected to a P2P link
are root or designated ports, the ports can transit to the forwarding state quickly by sending
Proposal and Agreement packets. This reduces the forwarding delay.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
interface interface-type interface-number
The view of the Ethernet interface participating in STP calculation is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
stp point-to-point { auto | force-false | force-true }
The link type is configured for the interface.
By default, an interface automatically determines whether to connect to a P2P link. The P2P link
supports rapid network convergence.
l If the Ethernet port works in full-duplex mode, the port is connected to a P2P link. In this
case, force-true can be configured to implement rapid network convergence.
l If the Ethernet port works in half-duplex mode, you can run stp point-to-point force-true
to forcibly set the link type to P2P.

7.6.2.6 Setting the Maximum Transmission Rate of an Interface
Context
.A larger value of packet-number indicates more BPDUs sent in a hello interval and therefore
more system resources occupied. Setting the proper value of packet-number prevents excess
bandwidth usage when route flapping occurs.
