Specifying the MST Region Configuration and Enabling MSTP
Purpose
Enables MSTP. RSTP is also enabled.
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.
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
