Re: Portfast in Trunk port

Hey Marko

Yes My SP has two customer facing interfaces and the customer facing
interfaces are trunk ports and they configure Portfast on these interfaces.
Port fast configured interfaces still receive BPDUs but tat port doesnt
participate in STP Transition states. So my Customer Access laer goes down,
this info will not be propogated in STP and there may be inconsistent
information in MAC Address table formed by STP

Can u explain me exactly what is the actual application ?

Thanks guys for ur thoughts :)
