Edge port
Setting
Description
Factory Default
Checked/Unchecked
Sets a port, which no BPDU expectedly goes through, as an
edge port
Unchecked, except
AP port
NOTE
We recommend you set an edge port for the port, which is connected to a non-STP/RSTP sub-network or an
end device (PLC, RTU, etc.) as opposed to network equipment. This can prevent unnecessary waiting and
negotiation of STP/RSTP protocol, and accelerate system initialization. When an edge port receives BPDUs, it
can still function as an STP/RSTP port and start negotiation.
Setting an edge port is different from disabling STP/RSTP on a port. If you disable STP/RSTP, a port will not
deal with STP/RSTP BPDUs at all.
Port Status
Port Status indicates the current Spanning Tree status of this port. Use Forwarding for normal transmission,
