Description
This feature protects edge ports from receiving BPDUs.
It prevents loops by shutting down an edge port when a BPDU is
received instead of putting it into the spanning tree discarding state. In a
valid configuration, configured edge ports should not receive BPDUs. If
an edge port receives a BPDU an invalid configuration exists, such as a
connection to an unauthorized device. The BPDU guard feature
provides a secure response to invalid configurations because an
administrator must manually enable the port. (Default: Disabled)
If at any time the switch detects STP BPDUs, including Configuration
or Topology Change Notification BPDUs, it will automatically set the
selected interface to forced STP-compatible mode. However, you can
also use the Protocol Migration button to manually re-check the
appropriate BPDU format (RSTP or STPcompatible) to send on the
selected interfaces. (Default: Disabled)
