Required 
 The maximum transmitting 
speed of all Ethernet ports 
on a switch defaults to 10. 
 
As the maximum transmitting speed parameter determines the number of the 
configuration BPDUs transmitted in each Hello time, set it to a proper value to avoid 
MSTP from occupying too many network resources. The default is recommended. 
III. Configuration example 
# Set the maximum transmitting speed of Ethernet1/0/1 port to 15. 
z  Configure the maximum transmitting speed in system view.

1.2.12  Edge Port Configuration 
Edge ports are ports that neither directly connects to other switches nor indirectly 
connects to other switches through network segments. After a port is configured as an
