Configuring The Current Port As An Edge Port - 3Com WX3000 Series Operation Manual

Configuration example
# Set the maximum transmitting speed of GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to 15.
1) Configure the maximum transmitting speed in system view
<device> system-view
[device] stp interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1 transmit-limit 15
2) Configure the maximum transmitting speed in Ethernet port view
<device> system-view
[device] interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1
[device-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] stp transmit-limit 15

Configuring the Current Port as an Edge Port

Edge ports are ports that neither directly connects to other devices nor indirectly connects to other
devices through network segments. After a port is configured as an edge port, the rapid transition
mechanism is applicable to the port. That is, when the port changes from the blocking state to the
forwarding state, it does not have to wait for a delay.
You can configure a port as an edge port in one of the following two ways.
Configure a port as an edge port in system view
Follow these steps to configure a port as an edge port in system view:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure the specified ports as
edge ports
Configure a port as an edge port in Ethernet port view
Follow these steps to configure a port as an edge port in Ethernet port view:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter Ethernet port view
Configure the port as an edge
port
On a device with BPDU guard disabled, an edge port becomes a non-edge port again once it receives
a BPDU from another port.
Use the command...
system-view
stp interface interface-list
edged-port enable
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
stp edged-port enable
1-26

Required
By default, all the Ethernet
ports of a device are non-edge
ports.
