Command Usage
An MSTI region is treated as a single node by the STP and RSTP protocols. Therefore,
the message age for BPDUs inside an MSTI region is never changed. However, each
spanning tree instance within a region, and the internal spanning tree (IST) that
connects these instances use a hop count to specify the maximum number of
bridges that will propagate a BPDU. Each bridge decrements the hop count by one
before passing on the BPDU. When the hop count reaches zero, the message is
dropped.
Example
Console(config-mstp)#max-hops 30
Console(config-mstp)#
mst priority
