VLAN-to-instance mapping table
As an attribute of an MST region, the VLAN-to-instance mapping table describes the mapping
relationships between VLANs and MSTIs.
In
2 to MSTI 2, and the rest to CIST. MSTP achieves load balancing by means of the VLAN-to-instance
mapping table.
CST
The common spanning tree (CST) is a single spanning tree that connects all MST regions in a switched
network. If you regard each MST region as a device, the CST is a spanning tree calculated by these
devices through STP or RSTP.

IST
An internal spanning tree (IST) is a spanning tree that runs in an MST region. It is also called MSTI 0, a
special MSTI to which all VLANs are mapped by default.
In
region.
CIST
The common and internal spanning tree (CIST) is a single spanning tree that connects all devices in a
switched network. It consists of the ISTs in all MST regions and the CST.

network.
Regional root bridge
The root bridge of the IST or an MSTI within an MST region is the regional root bridge of the IST or the
MSTI. Based on the topology, different spanning trees in an MST region might have different regional
roots.
As shown in
C.
Common root bridge
The common root bridge is the root bridge of the CIST.

Port roles
A port can play different roles in different MSTIs. As shown in
device B, device C, and device D. Port 1 and port 2 of device A are connected to the common root
bridge, port 5 and port 6 of device C form a loop, and port 3 and port 4 of device D are connected
downstream to the other MST regions.
