Configuring MSTP
Configuring an MST region
Make the following configurations on the root bridge and on the leaf nodes separately.
Follow these steps to configure an MST region:
To do... Use the command... Remarks
Enter system view system-view —
Enter MST region view stp region-configuration —
Configure the MST region name region-name name
Optional
The MST region name is the MAC
address by default.
instance instance-id vlan vlan-list
Configure the VLAN-to-instance
mapping table
vlan-mapping modulo modulo
Optional
Use either command.
All VLANs in an MST region are
mapped to the CIST (or MSTI 0) by
default.
Configure the MSTP revision level
of the MST region
revision-level level
Optional
0 by default.

activated yet

Activate MST region configuration

entries in the MST region, and MST region revision level, and they are connected via a physical link.
• The configuration of MST region–related parameters, especially the VLAN-to-instance mappin

table,
will cause MSTP to begin a new spanning tree calculation process, which might result in network
topology instability. To reduce the possibility of topology instability caused by configuration, MSTP does
not immediately begin a new spanning tree calculation process when it is processing MST
region–related configurations. Instead, such configurations takes effect only after you activate the MST
region–related parameters by using the active region-configuration command, or enable MSTP by
using the stp enable command if MSTP is disabled.
