Figure 19-3. Mapping VLANs to MSTI Instances
All bridges in the MSTP region must have the same VLAN-to-instance mapping. To view which instance
a VLAN is mapped, use the
show spanning-tree mst vlan <VLAN-ID> command from EXEC Privilege mode.
To view the forwarding/discarding state of the ports participating in an MSTI, use the
show spanning-tree
msti
command from EXEC Privilege mode (Figure 19-4).

Influence MSTP Root Selection
MSTP determines the root bridge, but you can assign one bridge a lower priority to increase the probability
of it becoming the root bridge.
