182 CHAPTER 14: MSTP CONFIGURATION
■ Network topology changes are detected.
Configuration procedure

You can verify the above configurations by executing the display commands in
any view.
Execute the reset command in user view to clear statistics about MSTP.
MSTP Configuration
Example
Network requirements
Implement MSTP in the network shown in Figure 54 to enable packets of different
VLANs to be forwarded along different spanning tree instances. The detailed
configurations are as follows:
■ All switches in the network belong to the same MST region.
■ Packets of VLAN 10, VLAN 30, VLAN 40, and VLAN 20 are forwarded along
spanning tree instance 1, instance 3, instance 4, and instance 0 respectively.
In this network, Switch A and Switch B operate on the convergence layer; Switch
C and Switch D operate on the access layer. VLAN 10 and VLAN 30 are limited in
the convergence layer and VLAN 40 is limited in the access layer. Switch A and
