whether to connect the point-to-point link will be applied to all the MSTIs where the port
belongs. Note that a temporary loop may be redistributed if you configure a port not
physically connected with the point-to-point link as connected to such a link by force.
Related command: stp point-to-point.

Description
Use the stp interface root-protection command to enable Root protection on the
switch in system view.
Use the undo stp interface root-protection command to restore the default Root
protection state.
By default, Root protection is disabled.
In case of configuration error or malicious attack, the legal primary root may receive the
BPDU with a higher priority and then loose its place, which causes network topology
change errors. Due to the illegal change, the traffic supposed to travel over the
high-speed link may be pulled to the low-speed link and congestion will occur on the
network.
