Common Internal Spanning Tree configuration

The Common Internal Spanning Tree (CIST) provides compatibility with different MSTP regions and with devices
running different Spanning Tree instances. It is equivalent to Spanning Tree Group 0.
The following table describes the commands used to configure CIST commands.

CIST bridge configuration

CIST bridge parameters are used only when the switch is in MSTP mode. CIST parameters do not affect operation of
STP/PVST.
The following table describes the commands used to configure CIST Bridge Configuration commands.
Table 105
CIST Bridge Configuration commands
Command
spanning-tree mstp cist-
bridge priority {<0-65535>}
spanning-tree mstp cist-
bridge maximum-age {<6-40>}
spanning-tree mstp cist-
bridge forward-delay {<4-30>}
Description
Adds VLANs to the CIST. Enter one VLAN per line, and press Enter to add the VLANs.
Command mode: Global configuration
Resets all CIST parameters to their default values.
Command mode: Global configuration
Displays the current CIST configuration.
Command mode: All
Description
Configures the CIST bridge priority. The bridge priority parameter controls
which bridge on the network is the MSTP root bridge.
To make this switch the root bridge, configure the bridge priority lower than
all other switches and bridges on your network. The lower the value, the
higher the bridge priority. The range is 0 to 65535, and the default is
32768.
This command does not apply to RSTP. See the "Bridge Spanning Tree
configuration" section for more information.
Command mode: Global configuration
Configures the CIST bridge maximum age. The maximum age parameter
specifies the maximum time the bridge waits without receiving a configuration
bridge protocol data unit before it reconfigures the MSTP network. The range
is 6 to 40 seconds, and the default is 20 seconds.
This command does not apply to RSTP. See the "Bridge Spanning Tree
configuration" section for more information.
Command mode: Global configuration
Configures the CIST bridge forward delay parameter. The forward delay
parameter specifies the amount of time that a bridge port has to wait before it
changes from the listening state to the learning state and from the learning
state to the forwarding state. The range is 4 to 30 seconds, and the default is
15 seconds.
This command does not apply to RSTP. See the "Bridge Spanning Tree
configuration" section for more information.
Command mode: Global configuration
