Better to use auto-edge-port or admin-edge-port, on 5412zl switchports?
Switch Made/Model: USB HP 5412-92G-PoE+-2XG v2 zl Switch
Firmware: K.16.01.0004
Is it better practice to configure my individual switchports as admin-edge-port, or as auto-edge-port?
What acbout setting auto-edge-port on interfaces that are members of an LACP or trunk group?

For ports that will be connected to user equipment, I always use admin-edge-port (and BPDU filter/protection).

Re: Better to use auto-edge-port or admin-edge-port, on 5412zl switchports?
Hello. Auto-edge will wait 3 seconds for the reception of a BPDU. If it does not receive one the port is declared an edge-port and does not participate in spanning-tree or transmit BPDUs out the port. If it does receive a BPDU then it is declared a non-edge-port and does participate.
Setting to admin-edge will cause the ports to immediately go to forward when the port comes onine. If they are connected to end hosts you basically end up saving the 3 second wait time.
