set port point-to-point admin status

Command Mode

Global Configuration.

Description

Specifies whether a port is connected to a shared LAN segment or a point-

 

to-point LAN segment. A point-to-point LAN segment is connected to

 

exactly one other bridge (normally with a direct cable between them). Only

 

point-to-point links and edge ports can rapidly transition to forwarding

 

state.

 

If you set this field to Auto, the switch automatically detects whether the

 

port is connected to a shared link or a point-to-point link. Ports operating in

 

half duplex are set to non-point-to-point, and ports operating in full duplex

 

are set to point-to-point. You can, however, manually set the type of link.

Syntax

set port point-to-point admin status {<mod-num> <mod-swport-range>}
