    Configuring Loop Protection for a Spanning-Tree Instance Interface

    Before you begin, you must fully configure the spanning-tree protocol, including instance interfaces. You can configure RSTP, MSTP, or VSTP at the following hierarchy levels:

    • [edit protocols]
    • [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols]

    To configure enhanced loop protection:

    1. Include the bpdu-timeout-action statement with either the block or log option for the spanning-tree protocol interface.

    2. To display the spanning-tree protocol loop protection characteristics on an interface, use the show spanning-tree interface operational command.
