RE: Disabling spanning tree

Did anyone bother to look up bpdufilter in the command reference? If so,
what's it say?

I'm just curious to see if with it enabled on the interface if the port
still comes up as FWD under the sh spann-tree. If it comes up as Desg/FWD
then I would have to scratch my head, because it still says STP is
operational based upon the port moving into the Forwarding state. Looks
like Ryan just posted the output and it shows STP is still enabled. Any
thoughts??? To be safe I guess I'm still going to go with "no switchport"
Thanks Ryan for the output.
