Use this command to add an interface to a protected port group. The groupid parameter identifies the set of protected ports to which this interface is assigned. You can only configure an interface as protected in one group.
Note:
Port protection occurs within a single switch. Protected port configuration does not affect traffic between ports on two different switches. No traffic forwarding is possible between two protected ports.
