Configuring Spanning Tree Edge Ports on Specified Interfaces
You can configure spanning tree edge ports on specified interfaces. Interfaces configured as spanning tree
edge ports immediately transition to the forwarding state, without passing through the blocking or learning
states, on linkup.
This command has four states:
• spanning-tree port type edge—This command explicitly enables edge behavior on the access port.
• spanning-tree port type edge trunk—This command explicitly enables edge behavior on the trunk
If you enter the spanning-tree port type edge trunk command, the port is configured as an edge port

even in the access mode.
• spanning-tree port type normal—This command explicitly configures the port as a normal spanning
• no spanning-tree port type—This command implicitly enables edge behavior if you define the
