Configuring the port link type

A point-to-point link directly connects two devices. If two root ports or designated ports are connected
over a point-to-point link, they can rapidly transition to the forwarding state after a proposal-agreement
handshake process.
Configure the link type as point-to-point for a Layer 2 aggregate interface or a port that works in full
duplex mode. HP recommends you use the default setting and let the device to automatically detect the
port link type.
The stp point-to-point force-false or stp point-to-point force-true command configured on a port in MSTP
or PVST mode is effective for all MSTIs or VLANs.
If the physical link to which the port connects is not a point-to-point link but you set it to be one, the
configuration can cause a temporary loop.
