Important Considerations
■
You can use this command to configure the same setting on multiple
ports simultaneously. When you specify multiple port numbers, the
system prompts you to choose the setting and then applies it to all of
the ports.
■
The following table explains the forwarding behavior of a port based
on its bridge and port STP states:
