Figure 43-3. PVST+ with Extend System ID
Displaying STP Guard Configuration
To verify the STP guard configured on PVST interfaces, enter the show spanning-tree pvst [vlan vlan-id]
guard command. Refer to the Spanning Tree Protocol chapter for information on how to configure and use
the STP root guard, loop guard, and BPDU guard features.
The following output example shows an example for VLAN 5 in a PVST network in which:
• Root guard is enabled on a port that is in a root-inconsistent state.
• Loop guard is enabled on a port that is in a forwarding state.
• BPDU guard is enabled on a port that is shut down.
