Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.0

EdgePort allows the interface to forward traffic approximately 30 seconds sooner as it skips the Blocking and Learning states.

OS10 supports auto edge feature . If the port does not receive BPDU for the hello-time + one second interval then it places the port into auto edge mode.

If the edge port receives any BPDU, it looses the edge port property.

• Enable EdgePort on an interface in INTERFACE mode.
