NOTE: A port configured as an edge port, on a PVST switch, immediately transitions to the
forwarding state. Only ports connected to end-hosts should be configured as an edge port.
Consider an edge port similar to a port with a spanning-tree portfast enabled.
If you do not enable
shutdown-on-violation
, BPDUs are still sent to the route process
module (RPM) CPU.
You cannot enable
root guard
and
loop guard
at the same time on a 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
.
When used in a PVST+ network, loop guard is performed per-port or per-port channel at a
VLAN level. If no BPDUs are received on a VLAN interface, the port or port-channel transitions
to a Loop-Inconsistent (blocking) state only for this VLAN.
Enabling Portfast BPDU guard and loop guard at the same time on a port results in a port that
remains in a Blocking state and prevents traffic from flowing through it. For example, when
Portfast BPDU guard and loop guard are both configured:
•
If a BPDU is received from a remote device, BPDU guard places the port in an Err-
Disabled Blocking state and no traffic is forwarded on the port.
•
If no BPDU is received from a remote device, loop guard places the port in a Loop-
Inconsistent Blocking state and no traffic is forwarded on the port.
