Only edge is "name only" for what would "STAY" a port fast port (if a PPDU is never received on that port :)
Try it - you need to specify spanning-tree portfast (interface) or spanning-tree portfast default (global).
You can be sure what is and isn't with
Debug spanning-tree events
And finally
Show spanning-tree interface detail
(look for portfast there once everything is converged)
thanks

Normal is just a normal operational STP port. Edge is basically a new way to say portfast.
