Spanning Tree Algorithm Configuration 3

the amount of frame flooding required to rebuild address tables during reconfiguration events, does not cause the spanning tree to reconfigure when the interface changes state, and also overcomes other STA-related timeout problems. However, remember that Edge Port should only be enabled for ports connected to an end-node device.

Admin Link Type – The link type attached to this interface.

-Point-to-Point – A connection to exactly one other bridge.

-Shared – A connection to two or more bridges.

-Auto – The switch automatically determines if the interface is attached to a point-to-point link or to shared media.

Web – Click Spanning Tree, STA, Port Information or STA Trunk Information.
