About Disabling FSPF for Specific Interfaces
You can disable the FSPF protocol for selected interfaces. By default, FSPF is enabled on all E ports and TE
ports. This default can be disabled by setting the interface as passive.
Note
FSPF must be enabled at both ends of the interface for the protocol to work.
Disabling FSPF for Specific Interfaces
You can disable the FSPF protocol for selected interfaces. By default, FSPF is enabled on all E ports and TE
ports. This default can be disabled by setting the interface as passive.
To disable FSPF for a specific interface, follow these steps:
Step 1
switch# config terminal
switch(config)#
Enters configuration mode.
Step 2
switch(config)# interface fc1/4
switch(config-if)#
Configures a specified interface, or if already configured, enters configuration mode for the specified interface.
Step 3
switch(config-if)# fspf passive vsan 1
switch(config-if)#
Disables the FSPF protocol for the specified interface in the specified VSAN.
Step 4
switch(config-if)# no fspf passive vsan 1
switch(config-if)#
Reenables the FSPF protocol for the specified interface in the specified VSAN.
