Introduced on the Z9000. Added support for the optional guard keyword on the C-Series, S-Series, and E-Series TeraScale. Introduced on the S4810. Introduced the hardware shutdown-on-violation options. Introduced on the S-Series. Introduced on the C-Series. Added the optional bridge port data unit (BPDU) guard. Introduced on the E-Series. Usage Information The BPDU guard option prevents the port from participating in an active STP topology in case a BPDU appears on a port unintentionally, or is misconfigured, or is subject to a DOS attack. This option places the port into an Error Disable state if a BPDU appears and a message is logged so that the administrator can take corrective action. NOTE: A port configured as an edge port, on an RSTP switch, immediately transitions to the Forwarding state. Only configure ports connected to end-hosts as edge ports. Consider an edge port similar to a port with a spanning-tree portfast enabled. Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) 1862
