Mst Configuration Identification - D-Link xStack DES-3800 Series User Manual

NOTE: The Loopback Detection function can only be implemented on the Switch if it is configured
both on the STP Global Settings window, and on the STP Port Settings window. Enabling this
feature through only one of these windows will not fully enable the Loopback Detection function.

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 MST Configuration Identification window, click L2 Features > Spanning Tree > MST
Configuration Identification:

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. The user may choose a value between 0-65535 with a default setting of 0.
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.
This field displays the VLAN IDs associated with the specific MSTI.
