Spanning-Tree Configuration Guidelines

If more VLANs are defined than there are spanning-tree instances, you can enable PVST+ or rapid
PVST+ on STP ports s in only 128 VLANs on the switch. The remaining VLANs operate with spanning
tree disabled. However, you can map multiple VLANs to the same spanning-tree instances by using
MSTP. For more information, see
If 128 instances of spanning tree are already in use, you can disable spanning tree on STP ports in one
of the VLANs and then enable it on the VLAN where you want it to run. Use the no spanning-tree vlan
vlan-id global configuration command to disable spanning tree on a specific VLAN, and use the
spanning-tree vlan vlan-id global configuration command to enable spanning tree on the desired
VLAN.
