Table 3-26 STP Interface Parameters Modify Page item description
Item Description
STP
Specifies if STP is enabled on the port. The possible field values are:
z No Change: Retains the current port status.
z Enabled: Indicates that STP is enabled on the port.
z Disabled: Indicates that STP is disabled on the port. This is the default
value.
Port Fast
Specifies if Fast Link is enabled on the port. If Fast Link mode is enabled for
a port, the port is automatically placed in the Forwarding state when the port
link is up. Fast Link optimizes the STP protocol convergence. STP
convergence takes 30 seconds and is not dependent on the number of
switches in the network. The possible field values are:
z No Change: Retains the current port status.
z Enabled: Indicates fast link is enabled on the port.
z Disabled: Indicates fast link is disabled on the port. This is the default
value.
Root Guard
Restricts the interface from acting as the root port of the switch. The possible
field values are:
z No Change: Retains the current port status.
z Enabled: Indicates Root Guard is enabled on the port.
z Disabled: Indicates Root Guard is disabled on the port. This is the default
value.
Default Path Cost
Specifies if Default Path Cost is enabled. The possible field values are:
z No Change: Retains the current port status.
z Enabled: Enables the default path cost on the port. This is the default
value.
z Disabled: Disables the default path cost on the port.
