UNIT
Loop Protect
Select the desired unit or LAGs for configuration.
Enable or disable Loop Protect. It is recommended to enable this function on
root ports and alternate ports.
When there are link congestions or link failures in the network, the switch will not
receive BPDUs from the upstream device in time. Loop Protect is used to avoid
loop caused by the recalculation in this situation. With Loop Protect function
enabled, the port will temporarily transit to a blocking state after it does not
receive BPDUs in time.
