Per Interface PortFast Table
Spanning tree requires an interface to progress through the listening and learning
states, to exchange information and establish a loop-free path before it can
forward frames. On ports that connect to devices such as workstations and
servers, you can allow an immediate connection. PortFast immediately
transitions the port into STP forwarding mode upon linkup.
To enable PortFast on an interface and apply the selected BPDU features to the
interface, select the interface, and then check Enable Port Fast.
Configure REP To configure Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP), from the Configure menu,
