Edge Port and Point-to-Point

At the interface level, the portfast command specifies an interface as an edge port and the point-to-pointcommand specifies an interface as a point-to-point link. Since RSTP is enabled by default, all the interfaces are, by default, point-to-point links.

Configuring RSTP

Use either the command line reference or the WebUI to configure RSTP.

In the WebUI

The RSTP port interface is designated as point-to-point, by default, in the existing port configuration screen (Figure 147).

Figure 147: Configuring RSTP

Since RSTP is enabled by default, the default values appear in the WebUI. Table 148 lists the RSTP defaults and ranges (when applicable) in the configuration interface mode (config-if).
