3Com Switch 4200G Configuration Guide

Root Bridge Configuration 129
Configuration procedure (in system view)
Configuration procedure (in Ethernet port view)
Among aggregated ports, you can only configure the links of master ports as
point-to-point links.
If an autonegotiating port operates in full duplex mode after negotiation, you can
configure the link of the port as a point-to-point link.
After you configure the link of a port as a point-to-point link, the configuration
applies to all spanning tree instances. If the actual physical link of a port is not a
point-to-point link and you forcibly configure the link as a point-to-point link,
temporary loops may be incurred.
Configuration example
1 Configure the link connected to GigabitEthernet1/0/1 port as a point-to-point link.
Configure in system view.
