BPDU Guard

Control whether a port explicitly configured as Edge will disable itself upon

reception of a BPDU. The port will enter the error-disabled state, and will be

removed from the active topology.

P2P MAC

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.

Transition to the forwarding state is faster for point-to-point LANs than for shared

media.

(This applies to physical ports only. Aggregations are always forced Point2Point).

Migrate

If at any time the switch detects STP BPDUs, including Configuration or Topology

Change Notification BPDUs, it will automatically set the selected interface to

forced STP-compatible mode. However, you can also use the Protocol Migration

button to manually re-check the appropriate BPDU format (RSTP or

STP-compatible) to send on the selected interfaces.

(Default:

Disabled)

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.
