BPDU Attack Protection Settings

The Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) Protection Settings is to protect a port from receiving STP packets. Certain
ports on the Switch do not need to receive STP packets. With BPDU attack protection enabled for these ports, it could
prevent misconfigured or malicious end devices from disturbing the STP networks, and the method for dealing with
those packets can be choosen in the Mode drop-down menu.
