Description
"force-true" specifies ports as edge ports. The edge ports
connect directly to terminal, affecting no network‟s
connectivity, thus getting quickly into Forwarding status.
When edge ports receiving configuration message (BPDU
Message), the system will automatically set these ports as
non-edge ports and calculate spanning tree, causing
network‟s topology oscillation.
Force-true: it represents point to point sharing link. Point to
point port is similar to edge port, but point to point mode
must be full duplex mode. As the edge port, point to point
port can quickly turn into forwarding status to obtain RSTP
advantages.
Force-false: it represents this interface does not own point to
point status.
auto: it represents that interface will change into point to
point status whenever it is possible, like status of point to
point is "force-true". If the interface can not maintain this
status,(like interface is forced operating half duplex mode),
the point to point status will be changed, like status of point
to point is "force-false". This parameter default is set as
"auto".
