Hello all,
Can we have portfast enabled in a vPC port that is facing a server or is it better to enable edge trunk on that port ?
Thanks for your feedback.

edge port in nsk is same as portfadt in other cisco SW.
You can use edge trunk for server sure

spanning-tree port type edge trunk
is typical config for endpoint facing ports for NX-OS. Portfast - in IOS/IOS-XE

hello
Portfast edge trunk if the pc is a trunk
Portfast edge if it the pc is an access
edited - just like to state be careful only enable portfast edge trunk to a trunk ONLY if you are sure it connecting to an edge device such as as server and not another switch

Whether to have a port flagged as a STP edge port is NOT directly related to it carrying a single VLAN or many. They are different considerations.
This can be easily misunderstood because a single VLAN port is most commonly used for edge hosts while a multi VLAN port is commonly used with other switches.
