Usage Guidelines

This command is an explicit Spanning Tree command that only applies to the port connection type for

the CIST instance regardless of which operating mode (flat or 1x1) is active on the switch.

If the switch is running in 1x1 mode when this command is used, the specified port connection type is

not active for the CIST instance until the operating mode for the switch is changed to the flat mode.

Note that when a configuration snapshot is taken of the switch, all Spanning Tree commands are saved

in their explicit format.

A port is considered connected to a point to point LAN segment if the port belongs to a link aggregate

of ports or if autonegotiation determines the port should run in full duplex mode or if full duplex mode

was administratively set. Otherwise, the port is considered connected to a no point to point LAN

Rapid transition of a designated port to forwarding can only occur if the port's connection type is

defined as a point to point or an edge port. Rapid transition of an alternate port role to a root port role is

not affected by the port connection type definition.
