Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+)
The Dell Networking Operating System (OS) implementation of per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+) is based on the IEEE 802.1w
standard spanning tree protocol, but it creates a separate spanning tree for each VLAN congured.
NOTE: For easier command line entry, the plus (+) sign is not used at the command line.
