Prerequisites for VLAN Trunks
The IEEE 802.1Q trunks impose these limitations on the trunking strategy for a network:
In a network of Cisco switches connected through IEEE 802.1Q trunks, the switches maintain one
spanning-tree instance for each VLAN allowed on the trunks. Non-Cisco devices might support one
spanning-tree instance for all VLANs.
When you connect a Cisco switch to a non-Cisco device through an IEEE 802.1Q trunk, the Cisco switch
combines the spanning-tree instance of the VLAN of the trunk with the spanning-tree instance of the
non-Cisco IEEE 802.1Q switch. However, spanning-tree information for each VLAN is maintained by
Consolidated Platform Configuration Guide, Cisco IOS Release 15.2(4)E (Catalyst 2960-X Switches)
