Hello,

you probably look for timers in seconds ?

uplinkfast --> 3 to 5 seconds instead of up to 30 second convergence

backbonefast --> 30 seconds (normal convergence minus Max_Age which is 20 seconds)

portfast --> immediately after linkup

BTW, features like uplinkfast and backbonefast are proprietary Cisco enhancements.  If you want/need to use them you would likely be better using rapid-STP.
