Command Usage
◆
This command filters all Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) that would

function is designed to work in conjunction with edge ports which should only
connect end stations to the switch, and therefore do not need to process
BPDUs. However, note that if a trunking port connected to another switch or
bridging device is mistakenly configured as an edge port, and BPDU filtering is
enabled on this port, this might cause a loop in the spanning tree.
◆
Before enabling BPDU Filter, the interface must first be configured as an edge
port with the
