I use it with switchport protected

Here is the snippit from

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat2950/12111ea1/scg/swt
rafc.htm#xtocid6
This example shows how to configure Gigabit Ethernet interface 0/1 as a
protected port and verify the configuration:

Switch# configure terminal

Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/1

Switch(config-if)# switchport protected

Switch(config-if)# end

Switch# show interfaces gigabitethernet0/1 switchport

Name: Gi0/1
Switchport: Enabled

<output truncated>

Protected: True
Unknown unicast blocked: disabled
Unknown multicast blocked: disabled
