Configuring Mstp; Configuring An Mst Region - HP A6600 Configuration Manual

Though the member ports of an aggregation group do not participate in MSTP calculation, the ports still
reserve its MSTP configurations for participating MSTP calculation after leaving the aggregation group.

Configuring MSTP

Configuring an MST region

Make the following configurations on the root bridge and on the leaf nodes separately.
To configure an MST region:
To do...
1. Enter system view
2. Enter MST region view
3. Configure the MST region
name
4. Configure the
VLAN-to-instance mapping
table
5. Configure the MSTP revision
level of the MST region
6. Display the MST region
configurations that are not
activated yet
7. Activate MST region
configuration manually
8. Display the currently activated
configuration information of
the MST region
Two or more MSTP-enabled devices belong to the same MST region only if they are configured to have
the same format selector (0 by default, not configurable), MST region name, the same VLAN-to-instance
mapping entries in the MST region and the same MST region revision level, and they are interconnected
via a physical link.
The configuration of MST region–related parameters, especially the VLAN-to-instance mapping table,
causes MSTP to launch a new spanning tree calculation process, which may result in network topology
instability. To reduce the possibility of topology instability caused by configuration, MSTP does not
immediately launch a new spanning tree calculation process when processing MST region–related
configurations. Instead, such configurations takes effect only after you activate the MST region–related
parameters by using the active region-configuration command, or enable MSTP by using the stp enable
command in the case that MSTP is not enabled.
Use the command...
system-view
stp region-configuration
region-name name
instance instance-id vlan vlan-list
vlan-mapping modulo modulo
revision-level level
check region-configuration
active region-configuration
display stp region-configuration
