Command Usage

This command is used to enable/disable the fast spanning-tree mode for the selected port. In this mode, ports skip the

Discarding and Learning states, and proceed straight to Forwarding.

Since end-nodes cannot cause forwarding loops, they can be passed through the spanning tree state changes more

quickly than allowed by standard convergence time. Fast forwarding can achieve quicker convergence for end-node

workstations and servers, and also overcome other STA related timeout problems. (Remember that fast forwarding should

only be enabled for ports connected to a LAN segment that is at the end of a bridged LAN or for an end-node device.)

This command is the same as spanning-tree edge-port, and is only included for backward compatibility with earlier

products. Note that this command may be removed for future software versions.

Example

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

Console(config-if)#bridge-group 1 portfast

Console(config-if)#
