Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol /

Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol configuration

The switch supports the IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP). MSTP allows you to map many VLANs to a small number of spanning tree groups, each with its own topology.

MSTP supports up to 32 Spanning Tree Groups on the switch (STG 32 is reserved for switch management). MRST is turned off by default.

NOTE: When Multiple Spanning Tree is turned on, VLAN 1 is moved from Spanning Tree Group 1 to the Common Internal Spanning Tree (CIST). When Multiple Spanning Tree is turned off, VLAN 1 is moved back to Spanning Tree Group 1.

The following table describes the Multiple Spanning Tree Configuration commands.
