R211x-HP Flexfabric 11900 Layer 2 - LAN Switching Command Reference
144
legacy: Configures the device to calculate the default path cost for ports based on a private standard.
Usage guidelines
If you change the standard that the device uses in calculating the default path costs, you restore the path
costs to the default.
Examples
# Configure the device to calculate the default path cost for ports based on IEEE 802.1d-1998.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] stp pathcost-standard dot1d-1998

stp point-to-point
Use stp point-to-point to configure the link type of a port.
Use undo stp point-to-point to restore the default.
Syntax
stp point-to-point { auto | force-false | force-true }
undo stp point-to-point
Default
The default setting is auto, and the spanning tree device automatically detects whether a port connects
to a point-to-point link.
Views
Layer 2 Ethernet interface view, Layer 2 aggregate interface view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
mdc-admin
Parameters
auto: Specifies automatic detection of the link type.
force-false: Specifies the non-point-to-point link type.
force-true: Specifies the point-to-point link type.
Usage guidelines
When connecting to a non-point-to-point link, a port is incapable of rapid state transition.
You can configure the link type as point-to-point for a Layer 2 aggregate interface or a port that operates
in full duplex mode. HP recommends that you use the default setting, which lets the device automatically
detect the port link type.
The stp point-to-point force-false or stp point-to-point force-true command configured on a port in MSTP
mode is effective on all MSTIs or VLANs.
