Sets the edge port Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) filter for the port.
Guards the port against the reception of BPDUs.
A port can become an edge port if no BPDU is received.
A port must become an edge port before it receives a BPDU.
When an edge port receives a BPDU, it becomes a normal spanning-tree port and is no longer
an edge port.
Because ports directly connected to end stations cannot create bridging loops in the network,
edge ports directly transition to the forwarding state, and skip the listening and learning states
