10.1.3 MSTP Load Balance
In a MSTP region, VLANs can be mapped to various instances. That can form various
topologies. Each instance is independent from the others and each distance can has its
own attributes such as bridge priority and port cost etc. Consequently, the VLANs in
different instances have their own paths. The traffic of the VLANs are load-balanced.
