You can and should have links connected to other switches/hubs/routers that
are portfast enabled.
However you should leave portfast disabled when there is resiliency between
2 network devices which would cause a spanning tree loop.

You have to enable it on an interface-by-interface basis and make sure the
links only connect to workstations not to other network equipment.
