To view the enable status of this feature, use the show running-config spanning-tree mstp command from EXEC
Privilege mode.
MSTP Sample Configurations
The running-configurations support the topology shown in the following illustration.
The configurations are from Dell EMC Networking OS systems.
Figure 98. MSTP with Three VLANs Mapped to Two Spanning Tree Instances
Router 1 Running-Configuration
This example uses the following steps:
1. Enable MSTP globally and set the region name and revision map MSTP instances to the VLANs.
2. Assign Layer-2 interfaces to the MSTP topology.
3. Create VLANs mapped to MSTP instances tag interfaces to the VLANs.
Router 2 Running-Configuration
This example uses the following steps:
1. Enable MSTP globally and set the region name and revision map MSTP instances to the VLANs.
2. Assign Layer-2 interfaces to the MSTP topology.
3. Create VLANs mapped to MSTP instances tag interfaces to the VLANs.
Router 3 Running-Configuration
This example uses the following steps:
1. Enable MSTP globally and set the region name and revision map MSTP instances to the VLANs.
2. Assign Layer-2 interfaces to the MSTP topology.
3. Create VLANs mapped to MSTP instances tag interfaces to the VLANs.
