Required 
Both commands can be used 
to configure VLAN mapping 
tables. 
By default, all VLANs in an 
MST region are mapped to 
spanning tree instance 0.

Configuring MST region-related parameters (especially the VLAN mapping table) 
results in spanning trees being regenerated. To reduce network topology jitter caused 
by the configuration, MSTP does not regenerate spanning trees immediately after the 
configuration; it does this only after you perform one of the following operations, and 
then the configuration can really takes effect: 
z  Activating the new MST region-related settings by using the active 
region-configuration command 
z  Enabling MSTP by using the stp enable command 
 
  Note: 
Switches belong to the same MST region only when they have the same MST region 
name, VLAN mapping table, and MSTP revision level.
