Inuencing PVST+ Root Selection
As shown in the previous per-VLAN spanning tree illustration, all VLANs use the same forwarding topology because R2 is elected the root,
and all TenGigabitEthernet ports have the same cost.
The following per-VLAN spanning tree illustration changes the bridge priority of each bridge so that a dierent forwarding topology is
generated for each VLAN. This behavior demonstrates how you can use PVST+ to achieve load balancing.
