E.2 Enabling the PortFast Option to Configure STP Edge Ports
To enable PortFast on a single port, the spanning-tree portfast command must be used. The following
steps are an example of using this command to enable portfast on port 10 of the first PowerConnect
6248 in a stack
console# configure
console(config)# spanning-tree mode rstp
console(config)# interface ethernet 1/g10
console(config-if)# spanning-tree portfast
console(config-if)# exit
console(config)# exit
console# copy running-config startup-config
console# exit
E.3 Configuring Flow Control
Flow control on the PowerConnect 62xx Family of switches is off by default. To enable flow control on
all ports in the switch, use the flowcontrol command.
To enable flow control on all ports of a PowerConnect 6248, enter the following commands:
onsole# configure
c
console(config)# flowcontrol
console(config)# exit
console# copy running-config startup-config
con
sole# exit
E.4 Disabling Unicast Storm Control
To disable port storm control on the PowerConnect 62xx switch, use the no storm-control unicast
command. The following steps are an example of using this command to disable the unicast storm
control on a single port – Port 10 of Switch 3 in a stack:
console# configure
console(config)# interface ethernet 3/g10
console(config-if)# no storm-control unicast
