Guide.
Release K.12.04 Enhancements
Release K.12.04 includes the following enhancement:
Enhancement MSTP (PR_1000369492) — Update of MSTP implementation to the latest
IEEE P802.1Q-REV/D5.0 specification to stay in compliance with the protocol evolution. For
more information on selected configuration options and updated MSTP port parameters, see

"Configuring MSTP Port Connectivity Parameters"

Configuring MSTP Port Connectivity Parameters
With release K.12.04, all ports are configured as auto-edge-ports by default, and the spanning tree
edge-port option has been removed. This section describes selected spanning-tree <port-list> command
parameters for enhanced operation.
Basic port connectivity parameters affect spanning-tree links at the global level. Therefore, in most
cases, ProCurve recommends that you use the revised default settings for these parameters and apply
changes on a per-port basis only where a non-default setting is clearly indicated by the circumstances
of individual links (for example, see the root-guard option below).
To display the spanning-tree settings for each port, use the show spanning-tree config command.
Syntax: [no] spanning-tree < port-list > < auto-edge-port | admin-edge-port | mcheck | root-guard |
tcn-guard >
[auto-edge-port]
Enables auto-edge-port operation for MSTP, and supports the automatic detection
of edge ports. (Default: Yes, enabled)
The port will look for BPDUs for 3 seconds; if there are none it begins forwarding
packets. If admin-edge-port is enabled for a port, the setting for auto-edge-port is
ignored whether set to yes or no. If admin-edge-port is disabled, and auto-edge-port
has not been disabled, then the auto-edge-port setting controls the behavior of the
port.
The no spanning-tree < port-list > auto-edge-port command disables auto-edge-port
operation on the specified ports.
