Dell Networking 7048 Reference Manual page 779

User Guidelines
This command only applies to access ports. The command is to be used only
with interfaces connected to end stations. Otherwise, an accidental topology
loop could cause a data packet loop and disrupt switch and network
operations.
An interface with PortFast mode enabled is moved directly to the spanning
tree forwarding state when linkup occurs without waiting the standard
forward-time delay.
Example
The following example enables PortFast on 1/0/5
.
console(config)#interface gigabitethernet 1/0/5
console(config-if-1/0/5)#spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree portfast bpdufilter default
The spanning-tree portfast bpdufilter default command discards BPDUs
received on spanning-tree ports in portfast mode. Use the "no" form of the
command to disable discarding.
