Chapter 19 Configuring MSTP

Configuring MSTP Features

 

Command

Purpose

 

Step 5

 

 

 

 

revision version

 

Specify the configuration revision number. The range is 0 to 65535.

 

Step 6

 

 

 

 

show pending

 

Verify your configuration by displaying the pending configuration.

 

Step 7

 

 

 

 

exit

 

Apply all changes, and return to global configuration mode.

 

Step 8

 

 

 

 

spanning-tree mode mst

 

Enable MSTP. RSTP is also enabled.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Caution Changing spanning-tree modes can disrupt traffic because all

 

 

 

 

 

 

spanning-tree instances are stopped for the previous mode and

 

 

 

 

 

 

restarted in the new mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You cannot run both MSTP and PVST+ or both MSTP and rapid PVST+

 

 

 

 

at the same time.

 

Step 9

 

 

 

 

end

 

Return to privileged EXEC mode.

 

Step 10

 

 

 

 

show running-config

 

Verify your entries.

 

Step 11

 

 

 

 

copy running-config startup-config

 

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To return to the default MST region configuration, use the no spanning-tree mst configuration global configuration command. To return to the default VLAN-to-instance map, use the no instance instance-id[vlan vlan-range] MST configuration command. To return to the default name, use the no name MST configuration command. To return to the default revision number, use the no revision MST configuration command. To re-enable PVST+, use the no spanning-tree mode or the spanning-tree mode pvst global configuration command.

This example shows how to enter MST configuration mode, map VLANs 10 to 20 to MST instance 1, name the region region1, set the configuration revision to 1, display the pending configuration, apply the changes, and return to global configuration mode:

Switch(config)# spanning-tree mst configuration Switch(config-mst)#instance 1 vlan 10-20 Switch(config-mst)#name region1 Switch(config-mst)#revision 1 Switch(config-mst)#show pending

Pending MST configuration

Name [region1] Revision 1 Instance Vlans Mapped

-------- ---------------------

01-9,21-4094

110-20

-------------------------------

Switch(config-mst)# exit

Switch(config)#

Configuring the Root Switch

The switch maintains a spanning-tree instance for the group of VLANs mapped to it. A switch ID, consisting of the switch priority and the switch MAC address, is associated with each instance. For a group of VLANs, the switch with the lowest switch ID becomes the root switch.
