Re: Spanning-tree Guard Root

This feature allows you to enforce the placement of the root bridge in your network.
When enabled on a port, if that port receives a superior BPDU , the port will be put into a root-inconsistent state (basically listening)

That's my understanding too. To prevent another switch with a lower
priority from becoming the root bridge.

Any other explanation Experts?

Thanks,
