spanning tree portfast gets immediately comes up.

commad is sw1(config-if)#spanning-tree portfast.

Enable the command spanning-tree portfast 

After a port on the switch has linked and joined the bridge group, STP runs on that port. A port that runs STP can be in one of five states:

 

  • blocking

  • listening

  • learning

  • forwarding

  • disabled

STP dictates that the port starts out blocking, and then immediately moves through the listening and learningphases. By default, the port spends approximately seconds listening and seconds learning 

*Never use the PortFast feature on switch ports that connect to other switches, hubs, or routers. These connections can cause physical loops.
