When the detect cause option is enabled, the port is shut down whenever there is a BPDU guard
violation.
When the option is disabled, the port is not shut down but moved to BLOCKING state whenever there is
a BPDU guard violation. In this case, the port is operationally DOWN in spanning-tree mode and when the
recovery timer expires, the port is UP irrespective of the recovery cause configuration.
The no version of the command disables the detect cause option.
