Chapter 18 Configuring MSTP
Configuring MSTP Features
Default MSTP Configuration
Table 18-4 shows the default MSTP configuration.
For information about the supported number of spanning-tree instances, see the “Supported
Spanning-Tree Instances” section on page 17-10.
MSTP Configuration Guidelines
These are the configuration guidelines for MSTP:
When you enable MST by using the spanning-tree mode mst global configuration command, RSTP
is automatically enabled.
For two or more stacked switches to be in the same MST region, they must have the same
VLAN-to-instance map, the same configuration revision number, and the same name.
The switch stack supports up to 65 MST instances. The number of VLANs that can be mapped to a
particular MST instance is unlimited.
PVST+, rapid PVST+, and MSTP are supported, but only one version can be active at any time. (For
example, all VLANs run PVST+, all VLANs run rapid PVST+, or all VLANs run MSTP.) For more
information, see the “Spanning-Tree Interoperability and Backward Compatibility” section on
page 17-11. For information on the recommended trunk port configuration, see the “Interaction with
Other Features” section on page 12-20.
All stack members run the same version of spanning tree (all PVST+, rapid PVST+, or MSTP). For
more information, see the “Spanning-Tree Interoperability and Backward Compatibility” section on
page 17-11.
VTP propagation of the MST configuration is not supported. However, you can manually configure
the MST configuration (region name, revision number, and VLAN-to-instance mapping) on each
switch within the MST region by using the command-line interface (CLI) or through the SNMP
support.
