Configuring the Spanning Tree Protocol 649
Configuring MSTP
This example shows how to configure IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree
(MST) protocol on the switches shown in Figure 23-17.
Figure 23-17. MSTP Configuration Example
To make multiple switches be part of the same MSTP region, make sure the
STP operational mode for all switches is MSTP. Also, make sure the MST
region name and revision level are the same for all switches in the region.
To configure the switches:
1
Create VLAN 10 (Switch A and Switch B) and VLAN 20 (all switches).
console#configure
console(config)#vlan 10,20
console(config-vlan10,20)#exit
console(config-vlan)#exit
NOTE: Even Switch B does not have any ports that are members of VLAN 10,
this VLAN must be created to allow the formation of MST regions made up of
all bridges that exchange the same MST Configuration Identifier. It is only
within these MST Regions that multiple instances can exist.
