    Hi!

    I have few servers connected to my HP5700 running IRF. I have LACP configured on the server side like on Windows server Teaming Mode is LACP and my port configuration is

    interface Bridge-Aggregation56
    port access vlan 56
    link-aggregation mode dynamic

    I can see log messages when I restart the server.

    STP/6/STP_DETECTED_TC: Instance 0's port Bridge-Aggregation56 detected a topology change.

    In Cisco we used port fast and I can see on HP documentation that stp edge port is the command for access vlan and I can see lacp edge-port command under my configure.

    If I configure lacp edge-port on my port then will it cause any down time?

    I have couple of other ports that are connected to VMware servers.

    interface Bridge-Aggregation91
     port link-type trunk
     port trunk permit vlan 1 54 120 301 to 303

    For the above I can use stp edge port?

    Thanks

    Hi

    " lacp edge-port"  command on the aggregate interface that connects the device to a server if dynamic link aggregation is configured only on the device. This feature improves link reliability by enabling all member ports of the aggregation group to forward packets.

    This command takes effect only on an aggregate interface corresponding to a dynamic aggregation group.

    Link-aggregation traffic redirection cannot operate correctly on an edge aggregate interface.

    You can configure "stp edge port " on the server connected interface.

    Example :

    <HPE> system-view

    [HPE] interface Bridge-Aggregation1

    [HPE- Bridge-Aggregation1] stp edged-port

     

    Thank you
