Configuring Fabric Attach interface-level settings
Use this procedure to configure FA interface-level settings or view existing interface-level settings.
You can enable Fabric Attach on a port, static MLT or an LACP MLT. Enabling FA on a port not only
enables tagging but also disables spanning tree on that port. Enabling FA on an MLT enables FA on
all ports of the MLT. When FA is enabled on ports in an MLT or LACP MLT, tagging is enabled and
spanning tree is disabled on all those ports.
