3Com WX3000 operation manual Configuring the Current Port as an Edge Port, Edged-port enable

Configuration example

# Set the maximum transmitting speed of GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to 15.

1)Configure the maximum transmitting speed in system view

<device> system-view

[device] stp interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1 transmit-limit 15

2)Configure the maximum transmitting speed in Ethernet port view

<device> system-view

[device] interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1

[device-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] stp transmit-limit 15

Configuring the Current Port as an Edge Port

Edge ports are ports that neither directly connects to other devices nor indirectly connects to other devices through network segments. After a port is configured as an edge port, the rapid transition mechanism is applicable to the port. That is, when the port changes from the blocking state to the forwarding state, it does not have to wait for a delay.

You can configure a port as an edge port in one of the following two ways.

Configure a port as an edge port in system view

Follow these steps to configure a port as an edge port in system view:

To do…	Use the command…	Remarks
Enter system view	system-view	—
		Required
Configure the specified ports as	stp interface interface-list	By default, all the Ethernet
edge ports	edged-port enable	ports of a device are non-edge
		ports.

Configure a port as an edge port in Ethernet port view

Follow these steps to configure a port as an edge port in Ethernet port view:

To do…	Use the command…	Remarks
Enter system view	system-view	—
Enter Ethernet port view	interface interface-type	—
	interface-number
		Required
Configure the port as an edge	stp edged-port enable	By default, all the Ethernet
port		ports of a device are non-edge
		ports.

On a device with BPDU guard disabled, an edge port becomes a non-edge port again once it receives a BPDU from another port.
