Context
P2P links can implement rapid convergence. If the two ports connected by a P2P link are root or designated ports, they can transit to the Forwarding state quickly by sending Proposal and Agreement packets. This reduces the forwarding delay.
Procedure
Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Run:
interface interface-type interface-number
The view of an Ethernet interface participating in STP calculation is displayed.
Run:
stp point-to-point { auto | force-false | force-true }
The link type is set for the interface.
By default, an interface automatically identifies whether it is connected to a P2P link. P2P links implement rapid network convergence.
If the Ethernet interface works in full-duplex mode, the interface is connected to a P2P link. In this case, force-true can be specified in the command to implement rapid network convergence.
If the Ethernet interface works in half-duplex mode, you can run the stp point-to-point force-true command to forcibly set the link type to P2P.
