1. log in to SW2 using two telnet sessions
2. type "conf t" each in session, then enter interface configuration
mode for fa0/23 in session #1, and fa0/24 in session #2
3. type "spanning-tree portfast trunk" but do NOT press enter
4. employee and train a monkey to press ENTER in session #2 when
fa0/23 fails, or in session #1 when fa0/24 fails
5. ensure the monkey does this only after 15 seconds have passed
It's fool proof!
cheers,
Dale
