Dell S3048-ON User Manual

• If the interface to be shut down is a port channel, all the member ports are disabled in the hardware.
• When you add a physical port to a port channel already in the Error Disable state, the new member port is also disabled in the
hardware.
• When you remove a physical port from a port channel in the Error Disable state, the error disabled state is cleared on this physical
port (the physical port is enabled in the hardware).
• You can clear the Error Disabled state with any of the following methods:
• Use the shutdown command on the interface.
• Disable the shutdown-on-violation command on the interface (using the no spanning-tree stp-id portfast
[bpduguard | [shutdown-on-violation]]
command).
• Disable spanning tree on the interface (using the no spanning-tree command in INTERFACE mode).
• Disabling global spanning tree (using the no spanning-tree command in CONFIGURATION mode).
Example of Enabling an EdgePort on an Interface
To verify that EdgePort is enabled, use the show config command from INTERFACE mode.

Flush MAC Addresses after a Topology Change
Dell Networking OS has an optimized MAC address ush mechanism for RSTP, MSTP, and PVST+ that ushes addresses only when
necessary, which allows for faster convergence during topology changes.
However, you may activate the ushing mechanism dened by 802.1Q-2003 using the tc-flush-standard command, which ushes
MAC addresses after every topology change notication.
To view the enable status of this feature, use the show running-config spanning-tree mstp command from EXEC Privilege
mode.
MSTP Sample Congurations
The running-congurations support the topology shown in the following illustration.
The congurations are from Dell Networking OS systems.
