Global configuration

By default, the device enables Layer 2 protocol forwarding (L2PF). Customer-BPDU packets on all
CVLANs are forwarded to provider network ports when they arrive at customer-edge ports.

Since L2PF is globally enabled by default, all CVLANs have L2PF enabled by default. No CLI
configuration is needed.

To globally disable Layer 2 protocol forwarding, enter the following command:

Brocade(

config)# no l2protocol-forwarding stp

To disable L2PF on a particular CVLAN, enter commands such as the following:

Brocade(config)#esi acme encapsulation cvlan

Brocade(config-abc)#vlan 10

Brocade(config-abc-vlan-10)# no l2protocol-forward stp

Syntax: [no] l2protocol-forwarding stp

Use the no parameter to disable Layer 2 protocol forwarding.
