Command
Step 4
Router# show spanning-tree mst
Step 5
Router# copy running-config startup-config

command.

Configuring the Forwarding-Delay Time

To configure the forwarding-delay time for all MST instances, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
Router# configure terminal
Step 2
Router(config)# spanning-tree mst forward-time
seconds
Step 3
Router(config)# end
Step 4

configuration command.

Configuring the Transmit Hold Count

To configure the transmit hold count for all MST instances, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
Router# configure terminal
Step 2
Router(config)# spanning-tree transmit hold-count
hold_count_value
Step 3
Router(config)# end
