Usage
Information If you enable portfast bpduguard on an interface and the interface receives a
BPDU, the software disables the interface and sends a message stating that fact.
The port is in ERR_DISABLE mode, yet appears in the show interface
commands as enabled. If you do not enable shutdown-on-violation, BPDUs
are still sent to the RPM CPU.
