Rapid PVST+ Interoperation with 802.1s MST

Rapid PVST+ interoperates seamlessly with the IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree (MST) standard.
No user configuration is needed.
Configuring Rapid PVST+
Rapid PVST+, which has the 802.1w standard applied to the Rapid PVST+ protocol, is the default STP
setting in the software.
You enable Rapid PVST+ on a per-VLAN basis. The software maintains a separate instance of STP for
each VLAN (except on those VLANS on which you disable STP). By default, Rapid PVST+ is enabled
on the default VLAN and on each VLAN that you create.
This section includes the following topics:

Enabling Rapid PVST+

Once you enable Rapid PVST+ on the switch, you must enable Rapid PVST+ on the specified VLANs
(see
Rapid PVST+ is the default STP mode. You cannot simultaneously run MST and Rapid PVST+.

If the switch receives an 802.1D BPDU after the port migration-delay timer has expired, it assumes
that it is connected to an 802.1D switch and starts using only 802.1D BPDUs. However, if the
802.1w switch is using 802.1D BPDUs on a port and receives an 802.1w BPDU after the timer has
expired, it restarts the timer and starts using 802.1w BPDUs on that port.
