Port Type and Link Type
Edge/Portfast Port
A
port
that
does
not
connect
to
a
bridge
is
called
an
edge
port
.
Since
edge
ports
are
assumed
to
be
connected
to
non
‐
STP
devices
(such
as
directly
to
hosts
or
servers),
they
are
placed
in
the
forwarding
state
as
soon
as
the
link
is
up.
Internal
ports
(INT
x
)
should
be
configured
as
edge
ports.
Edge
ports
send
BPDUs
to
upstream
STP
devices
like
normal
STP
ports,
but
should
not
receive
BPDUs.
If
a
port
with
edge
enabled
does
receive
a
BPDU,
it
immediately
begins
working
as
a
normal
(non
‐
edge)
port,
and
participates
fully
in
Spanning
Tree.
Use
the
following
commands
to
define
or
clear
a
port
as
an
edge
port:
Link Type
The
link
type
determines
how
the
port
behaves
in
regard
to
Rapid
Spanning
Tree.
Use
the
following
commands
to
define
the
link
type
for
the
port:
where
type
corresponds
to
the
duplex
mode
of
the
port,
as
follows:
p2p
A
full
‐
duplex
link
to
another
device
(point
‐
to
‐
point)
shared
A
half
‐
duplex
link
is
a
shared
segment
and
can
contain
more
than
one
device.
auto
The
switch
dynamically
configures
the
link
type.
Note:
Any
STP
port
in
full
‐
duplex
mode
can
be
manually
configured
as
a
shared
port
when
connected
to
a
non
‐
STP
‐
aware
shared
device
(such
as
a
typical
Layer
2
switch)
used
to
interconnect
multiple
STP
‐
aware
devices.
