the administrator or the physical link state of the attached LANs
transits frequently.

BPDU Guard

If enabled, causes the port to disable itself upon receiving valid
BPDU's. Contrary to the similar bridge setting, the port Edge
status does not affect this setting.
A port entering error-disabled state due to this setting is subject
to the bridge Port Error Recovery setting as well.

Point2Point

Controls whether the port connects to a point-to-point LAN
rather than a shared medium. This can be automatically
determined, or forced either true or false. A transition to the
forwarding state is faster for point-to-point LANs than for shared
media.

By default, the system automatically detects the speed and duplex mode used on each port, and
configures the path cost according to the values shown below. Path cost “0” is used to indicate
auto-configuration mode. When the short path cost method is selected and the default path cost
recommended by the IEEE 8021w standard exceeds 65,535, the default is set to 65,535.
