MSTP Example 2
1. Configure port membership and define the STGs for VLAN 1. Enable tagging on
2. Configure MSTP: Spanning Tree mode, region name, and version.

This example shows how multiple Spanning Trees can provide redundancy
without wasting any uplink ports. In this example, the server ports are split
between two separate VLANs. Both VLANs belong to two different MSTP groups.
The Spanning Tree priority values are configured so that each routing switch is the
root for a different MSTP instance. All of the uplinks are active, with each uplink
port backing up the other.
uplink ports that share VLANs. Port 19 and port 20 connect to the Enterprise
