To specify an MST name, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Step 2
switch(config)# spanning-tree mst
configuration
Step 3
switch(config-mst)# name name
This example shows how to set the name of the MST region:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# spanning-tree mst configuration
switch(config-mst)# name accounting

Specifying the MST Configuration Revision Number

You configure the revision number on the bridge. For two or more bridges to be in the same MST region,
they must have the identical MST name, VLAN-to-instance mapping, and MST revision number.
To specify an MST revision number, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Step 2
switch(config)# spanning-tree mst
configuration
Step 3
switch(config-mst)# revision version
This example shows how to configure the revision number of the MSTI region for 5:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# spanning-tree mst configuration
switch(config-mst)# revision 5

Specifying the Configuration on an MST Region

For two or more switches to be in the same MST region, they must have the same VLAN-to-instance
mapping, the same configuration revision number, and the same MST name.
A region can have one member or multiple members with the same MST configuration; each member
must be capable of processing IEEE 802.1w RSTP BPDUs. There is no limit to the number of MST
regions in a network, but each region can support only up to 65 MST instances. You can assign a VLAN
to only one MST instance at a time.
