edge port, rapid transition is applicable to the port. That is, when the port changes from
blocking state to forwarding state, it does not have to wait for a delay.
You can configure a port as an edge port in the following two ways.
I. Configuration procedure (in system view)
Table 1-15 Configure a port as an edge port (in system view)
Operation Command Description
Enter system view
system-view
—
Configure the
specified ports as
edge ports
stp interface interface-list
edged-port enable
Required
By default, all the Ethernet
ports of a switch are
non-edge ports.
II. Configuration procedure (in Ethernet port view)
Table 1-16 Configure a port as an edge port (in Ethernet port view)
Operation Command Description
Enter system view
system-view
—
Enter Ethernet port
view
interface interface-type
interface-number
—
Configure the port
as an edge port
stp edged-port enable
Required
By default, all the Ethernet
ports of a switch are
non-edge ports.
On a switch with BPDU protection not enabled, an edge port becomes a non-edge port
again once it receives a BPDU from another port.
 Note:
You are recommended to configure the Ethernet ports connected directly to terminals
as edge ports and enable the BPDU protection function as well. This not only enables
these ports to transit to forwarding state rapidly but also secures your network.
III. Configuration example
# Configure port GigabitEthernet1/0/1 as an edge port.
