L2 Features > Spanning Tree > STP Port Settings
STP can be set up per port. In addition to setting Spanning Tree parameters for use on the switch level, the
Switch allows configuration of a spanning tree setup for a group of ports. Each port group spanning tree will
require separate configuration.
An STP Group spanning tree works in the same way as the switch-level spanning tree, but the root bridge
concept is replaced with a root port concept. The root port is selected based on the priority of and path cost
to the port. Redundant links will be blocked, just as redundant links are blocked on the switch level.
The STP on the switch level blocks redundant links between switches (and similar network devices). The
port level STP will block redundant links within an STP Group

The fields that can be configured are described below:
Item Description
From Port / To Port
Select the range of ports to be included in the spanning tree port
group.
Port Fast
Select the Port Fast option here. Options to choose from are
Network, Disabled, and Edge.
In the Network mode the port will remain in the non-port-fast
state for three seconds. The port will change to the port-fast
state if no BPDU is received and changes to the forwarding
state. If the port received the BPDU later, it will change to
the non-port-fast state.
In the Disable mode, the port will always be in the non-port-
fast state. It will always wait for the forward-time delay to
change to the forwarding state.
In the Edge mode, the port will directly change to the
spanning-tree forwarding state when a link-up occurs without
waiting for the forward-time delay. If the interface receives a
BPDU later, its operation state changes to the non-port-fast
state. By default, this option is Network.
