User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software

spanning-tree mst instance

This command adds a multiple spanning tree instance to the switch. The instance <mstid> is a number within a range of 1 to 4094, that corresponds to the new instance ID to be added. The maximum number of multiple instances supported by the software is 4.

Format	spanning-tree mst instance <mstid>
Mode	Global Config

no spanning-tree mst instance

This command removes a multiple spanning tree instance from the switch and reallocates all VLANs allocated to the deleted instance to the common and internal spanning tree. The instance <mstid> is a number that corresponds to the desired existing multiple spanning tree instance to be removed.

Format	no spanning-tree mst instance <mstid>
Mode	Global Config

spanning-tree mst priority

This command sets the bridge priority for a specific multiple spanning tree instance. The instance <mstid> is a number that corresponds to the desired existing multiple spanning tree instance. The priority value is a number within a range of 0 to 61440 in increments of 4096.

If 0 (defined as the default CIST ID) is passed as the <mstid>, then this command sets the Bridge Priority parameter to a new value for the common and internal spanning tree. The bridge priority value again is a number within a range of 0 to 61440. The twelve least significant bits will be masked according to the 802.1s specification. This will cause the priority to be rounded down to the next lower valid priority.

Default	32768
Format	spanning-tree mst priority <mstid> <0-61440>
Mode	Global Config

no spanning-tree mst priority

This command sets the bridge priority for a specific multiple spanning tree instance to the default value, i.e. 32768. The instance <mstid> is a number that corresponds to the desired existing multiple spanning tree instance.
