Command Line Interface

Since end-nodes cannot cause forwarding loops, they can be passed through the spanning tree state changes more quickly than allowed by standard convergence time. Fast forwarding can achieve quicker convergence for end-node devices, and also overcome other STP related timeout problems. (Remember that fast forwarding should only be enabled for ports connected to a LAN segment that is at the end of a bridged LAN or for an end-node device.)

Example

AP(config)#bridge stp-port portfast 15

AP(config)#

bridge stp-port spanning-disabled

This command disables the Spanning Tree Protocol for the specified interface. Use the no form to reenable the Spanning Tree Protocol for the specified interface.

Syntax

bridge stp-port spanning-disabled <port> no bridge stp-port spanning-disabled <port>

port - Specifies the port number on the wireless bridge. (Range: 0, Ethernet interface; 1-16 wireless interface)

Default Setting
