STP BPDU GUARD


  • If BPDU received from end host, immediately shut down the port
  • Instead of blocking BPDU(as in BPDU filter)  make the port into error disable state(traffic blocked).
  • After port going into error disable state, port can up
    • if error disable recovery timer expires
    • or, manually shutdown the port then bringsup.
  •  It is the more secured implementation of filtering STP.
  • Also config with PortFast on global mode
  • interface level will over ride global config
  • to check error disable recover timer enable or not use show cmd
    • show errdisable recvoery
  • Enable error disable recovery timer
    • errdisable recovery interval 30 on global mode (some times not enabled, verify by above cmd, then use below cmd)
    • errdisable recovery cause bpdugaurd because there are so many causes the port goto errdisable state
  • spanning-tree portfast bpdugaurd default
  • spanning-tree bpdugaurd default
