To configure BPDU guard in the switch, perform the following procedure.
Step 1

However, BPDU Guard can be corrupted by unexpected cause. In this case, the edge
port is blocked immediately and remains at this state until user recovers it. To prevent this
problem, the hiD 6615 S223/S323 switch provides BPDU guard auto-recovery function.
When an edge port is down for BPDU packet which came from other switch, the port is
recovered automatically after configured time.
To configure BPDU Guard auto-recovery, use the following command.

Self Loop Detection
Although there is no double path in user’s equipment, loop can be caused by network en-
vironment and cable condition connected to equipment. To prevent this, the hiD 6615
S223/S323 has self loop detection to perceive that outgoing packet is got back. Through
the self loop detection, you can prevent packet, which comes back because it blocks the
port.
