No Agreement Check configuration example
1. Network requirements
As shown in Figure 57:
{ Firewall A connects to a third-party firewall (Firewall B) that has a different spanning tree
implementation. Both firewalls are in the same region.
{ The third-party device (Firewall B) is the regional root bridge, and Firewall A is the downstream
device.

Configuring protection functions
A spanning tree device supports the following protection functions:
• BPDU guard
• Root guard
• Loop guard
• TC-BPDU guard
Enabling BPDU guard
For access layer devices, access ports can directly connect to user terminals (such as PCs) or file servers.
Access ports are configured as edge ports to allow rapid transition. When these ports receive
configuration BPDUs, the system automatically sets the ports as non-edge ports and starts a new
spanning tree calculation process. This causes a change of network topology. Under normal conditions,
these ports should not receive configuration BPDUs. However, if someone forges configuration BPDUs
maliciously to attack the devices, the network will become unstable.
