Configure a Root Guard
Use the Root Guard feature in a Layer 2 RSTP network to avoid bridging loops.
You enable root guard on a per-port or per-port-channel basis.
To enable a root guard on an RSTP-enabled port or port-channel interface, enter the
spanning-tree rstp
rootguard
command. Refer to
STP Root Guard on page 1060
for more information on how to use the root
guard feature.
To disable RSTP root guard on a port or port-channel interface, enter the
no spanning-tree rstp
rootguard
command in an interface configuration mode.
To verify the RSTP root guard configuration on a port or port-channel interface, enter the
show
spanning-tree rstp guard
[
interface
interface
]
command in global configuration mode.
FTOS Behavior:
The following conditions apply to a port enabled with root guard:
•
Root guard is supported on any RSTP-enabled port or port-channel interface except when used as a
stacking port.
•
Root guard is supported on a port in any Spanning Tree mode:
•
Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP)
•
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
(RSTP)
•
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol
(MSTP)
•
Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus
(PVST+)
•
When enabled on a port, root guard applies to all VLANs configured on the port.
•
Root guard and loop guard cannot be enabled at the same time on an RSTP port. For example, if you
configure loop guard on a port on which root guard is already configured, the following error message is
displayed:
% Error: RootGuard is configured. Cannot configure LoopGuard.
