Connection Type On Link Aggregate Ports - Alcatel OmniSwitch 6624 Network Configuration Manual

Configuring Spanning Tree Parameters
the connection type applies across all VLANs associated with the port. VLAN 1 is referenced as the port's
VLAN, even if the port is associated with other VLANs.
To change the mode for a port, enter bridge followed by an existing VLAN ID (or VLAN 1 if using a flat
Spanning Tree instance) then the port's slot/port designation followed by connection and then enter
either noptp, ptp, autoptp, or edgeport. For example, the following command defines an edge port
connection type for port 1 on slot 8 associated with VLAN 10.
-> bridge 10 8/1 connection edgeport
Note that the bridge slot/port connection command only configures one port at a time.

Connection Type on Link Aggregate Ports

Physical ports that belong to a link aggregate do not participate in the Spanning Tree Algorithm. Instead,
the algorithm is applied to the aggregate logical link (virtual port) that represents a collection of physical
ports. To change the STP port connection type for a link aggregate, use the same bridge command, but
specify a link aggregate control number instead of a slot and port. For example, the following command
defines the link aggregate 29 associated with VLAN 755 as an edge port:
-> bridge 755 29 connection edgeport
For more information about configuring an aggregate of ports, see
Aggregation," and Chapter 11, "Configuring Dynamic Link Aggregation."
To view the port connection type, use the
this command, see the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.
