For example, if you change the configuration, you can change the ID in the
Configuration Revision Level field so you can keep track of the different
configurations. You can enter an ID from 0 to 65535. The default is 0.

10. Select one of the following Forward BPDU while STP Disabled radio buttons:

Disabled: Spanning tree BPDUs are not forwarded if spanning-tree is disabled
on the switch. The default is Disable.

Enabled: Spanning tree BPDUs are forwarded if spanning-tree is disabled on
the switch.

11. Select one of the following BPDU Guard radio buttons:

Disabled: The BPDU guard feature is disabled, which is the default setting.

Enabled: The BPDU guard feature is enabled and enforces the STP domain
borders to keep the active topology consistent and predictable. Switches behind
edge ports on which STP BPDU guard is enabled do not affect the overall STP
topology. At the reception of BPDUs, the port on which BPDU guard is enabled
transitions into disabled state.

12. Select one of the following BPDU Filter radio buttons:

Disabled: The BPDU Filter feature is disabled, which is the default setting.

Enabled: The BPDU Filter feature is enabled and applies to all operational edge
ports. An edge port in an operational state connects to hosts that typically drop
BPDUs. If an operational edge port receives a BPDU, it loses its operational status.
If a port on which BPDU filtering is enabled receives BPDUs, the port drops the
BPDUs and remains operational.

13. Select one of the following Fast Backbone radio buttons:

Disabled: The Fast Backbone feature is disabled, which is the default setting.

Enabled: The Fast Backbone feature is enabled. If an indirect link fails, the switch
can automatically select a new indirect link. With PVST, the switch does not ignore
inferior BPDUs (which occurs with STP), but lets the BPDUs time-out on the port
where they were received. Then, the switch sends root link queries on other
non-designated ports. If the switch receives a positive response, it selects a new
indirect link.

14. Select one of the following Fast Uplink radio buttons:

Disabled: The Fast Uplink feature is disabled, which is the default setting.

Enabled: The Fast Uplink feature is enabled. If the primary root port goes down,
the recovery time in selecting a new root port is reduced.

15. If you enabled Fast Uplink in the previous step, in the Max Update Rate field, enter

the maximum update rate in packets per second.

You enter from 0 to 32000 packets per second. The default is 150.
