For example, when you configure both Portfast BPDU guard and loop guard: - If a BPDU is received from a remote device, BPDU guard places the port in an Err-Disabled Blocking state and no traffic forwards on the port. - If no BPDU is received from a remote device which was sending BPDUs, loop guard places the port in a Loop-Inconsistent Blocking state and no traffic forwards on the port. • When used in a PVST+ network, STP loop guard performs per-port or per port-channel at a VLAN level. If no BPDUs are received on a port-channel interface, the port or port-channel transitions to a Loop-Inconsistent (Blocking) state only for this VLAN. Global parameters All non-root bridges accept the timer values on the root bridge. Forward-time Hello-time Max-age Amount of time required for an interface to transition from the Discarding to the Learning state or from the Learning to the Forwarding state. Time interval within which the bridge sends BPDUs. Length of time the bridge maintains configuration information before it refreshes information by recomputing the RPVST+ topology. • Modify the forward-time (in seconds) in CONFIGURATION mode (4 to 30, default 15). spanning-tree vlan vlan-id forward-time seconds 232 Layer 2
