    I am trying to configure the SFP+ 10GbE ports on my 5412zl switch, that will be used solely for a dedicated iSCSI-based storage subnet.

    Should the iSCSI interface ports be configured with both of the following configuration entries?

    - spanning-tree admin-edge-port
    - enable flow-control
    - bpdu-protection (is this necessary if we are only using a single physical core switch for our iSCSI vlan and our default data vlan?)
