When connecting a switch port to a virtualization host requiring 802.1q VLAN tagging, which spanning-tree port type should be configured on the switch?
Confirmed answer is correct:
From Cisco's "NX-OS and Cisco Nexus Switch" book:
https://books.google.dk/books?id=o3jeY1SwOYcC&pg=PA100&lpg=PA100&dq=cisco+virtualization+host+802.1q+%22edge+trunk%22&source=bl&ots=c_WGqOUJtn&sig=ACfU3U1Z9RNI4-wnMTAW7hckhb4dikUVCg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiIpv6b6o_kAhXj0qYKHU6CBe8Q6AEwAHoECAgQAQ#v=onepage&q=cisco%20virtualization%20host%20802.1q%20%22edge%20trunk%22&f=false
"Virtualization hosts often require 802.1q trunk connectivity directly to hosts, Even though these hosts tag traffic with 802.1q headers, they are typically not true bridges and therefore can be treated as hosts and bypass the listening and learning stages of STP. "
