set port edge admin state

Command Mode

Global Configuration.

Description

Specifies whether a port is an edge port or a nonedge port. An edge port is

 

not connected to any other bridge. Only edge ports and point-to-point links

 

can rapidly transition to forwarding state.

 

If you set edge admin state to edge-port, the OperEdgePort field of the

 

show port command is also set to edge-port. However, if the port receives a

 

BPDU, the Oper Edge Port setting changes to non-edge-port. (To receive a

 

BPDU, the port must be connected to a bridge and thus is not an edge port.)

Syntax

set port edge admin state <mod-swport-range> [...,<mod-swport-range>]
