I think what he means is that portfast (or its Extreme equivalent) is not
enabled. Enabling portfast essentially eliminates the full spanning tree
calculation when link is detected on a switchport. If I'm not mistaken the
port goes directly from blocking to forwarding when portfast is enabled.
So, in its basic form, this is a spanning tree issue.
Or am I way off?
