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 cost
stp point-to-point
Use stp point-to-point to configure the link type of the ports.
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
Ethernet interface view, Layer 2 aggregate interface view
Default command level
2: System level
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
Configured in Ethernet interface view, the setting takes effect only on the interface.
Configured in Layer 2 aggregate interface view, the setting takes effect only on the aggregate interface.
Configured on a member port in an aggregation group, the setting takes effect only after the port leaves
the aggregation group.
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 to let the device automatically detect
the port link type.
