tc-prop-stop

This command stops propagating topology changes on an interface. Use

the no form to restore the default setting.

This command may be used to troubleshoot excessive TCN messages

appearing on an interface. The might occur when topology changes are

occurring repeatedly at short intervals. Switches will constantly fast-age

their forwarding tables, and flooding will be nearly constant. Topology

changes should occur rarely in a well-configured network, but cases such

as port flapping would cause repetitive topology changes and flooding.

XAMPLE

This example stops propagation of TCN messages on port 5.

Use this command to release an interface from discarding state if loopback

detection release mode is set to “manual” by the

spanning-tree loopback-

detection release-mode

command and BPDU loopback occurs.
