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.
FSPF must be enabled at both ends of the interface for the protocol to work.
