NOTE
The Bridge Port State and Bridge Mapping status modes will not be supported for devices
which have been configured for SecureFast switching.
Firmware versions 2.10.13 and earlier do not support the ability to select SecureFast
switching; if you have a later version of firmware, check your hardware manual to see if
your version of firmware supports this feature. The toggle from traditional bridging to
SecureFast switching is performed via Local Management; see your Local Management
documentation for details.
