Page 162

Function:
Set the link type of the current port; the command “no spanning-tree link-type” restores link type to
auto-negotiation.
Parameter:
auto sets auto-negotiation,
force-true forces the link as point-to-point type,
force-false forces the link as non point-to-point type.
Command mode:
Port Mode
Default:
The link type is auto by default, The MSTP detects the link type automatically.
Usage Guide:
When the port is full-duplex, MSTP sets the port link type as point-to-point; When the port is
half-duplex, MSTP sets the port link type as shared.
Example:
Force the port 1/7-8 as point-to-point type.
Switch(config)#interface ethernet 1/7-8
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#spanning-tree link-type p2p force-true
