Enabling Root Protect for a Spanning-Tree Instance Interface

To enable root protect for a spanning-tree instance interface:

  1. Enable configuration of the spanning-tree protocol:

    [edit]user@host# edit protocols (mstp | rstp | vstp <vlan vlan-id>)
  2. Enable configuration of the spanning-tree instance interface:

    [edit ... protocols (mstp | rstp | vstp <vlan vlan-id>)]user@host# edit interface interface-name
  3. Enable root protection on the interface:

    [edit ... protocols (mstp | rstp | vstp <vlan vlan-id>) interface interface-name]user@host# set no-root-port
  4. Verify the configuration of root protect for the spanning-tree instance interface:

    [edit ... protocols (mstp | rstp | vstp <vlan vlan-id>) interface interface-name]user@host# topuser@host# show ... protocols ...
    (mstp | rstp | vstp <vlan vlan-id>) {interface interface-name {no-root-port;}}

    Note: This is not a complete configuration.
