MST Configuration Identification

The following screens in the MST Configuration Identification window allow the user to configure a MSTI instance on
the Switch. These settings will uniquely identify a multiple spanning tree instance set on the Switch. The Switch initially
possesses one CIST or Common Internal Spanning Tree of which the user may modify the parameters for but cannot
change the MSTI ID for, and cannot be deleted. To view the Current MST Configuration Identification window, click

Description
A previously configured name set on the Switch to uniquely identify the MSTI
(Multiple Spanning Tree Instance). If a configuration name is not set, this field
will show the MAC address to the device running MSTP. This field can be set
in the STP Bridge Global Settings window.
This value, along with the Configuration Name will identify the MSTP region
configured on the Switch.
This field shows the MSTI IDs currently set on the Switch. This field will always
have the CIST MSTI, which may be configured but not deleted. Clicking the
hyperlinked name will open a new window for configuring parameters
associated with that particular MSTI.
