Use one of the commands.
The default setting is 128.

Configuring the port link type

A point-to-point link directly connects two devices. If two root ports or designated ports are connected

over a point-to-point link, they can rapidly transition to the forwarding state after a proposal-agreement

handshake process.

Configuration restrictions and guidelines

You can configure the link type as point-to-point for a Layer 2 aggregate interface or a port that

operates in full duplex mode. H3C recommends you to use the default setting and let the device to
automatically detect the port link type.

The stp point-to-point force-false or stp point-to-point force-true command configured on a port in
MSTP or PVST mode is effective for all MSTIs or VLANs.

If the physical link to which the port connects is not a point-to-point link but you set it to be one, the
configuration might cause temporary loops.

Configuration procedure

To configure the link type of a port or a group of ports:

Step Command

Enter port group view:

port-group manual port-group-name

Use one of the commands.

3.

Configure the port link
type.
