Spanning-Tree Commands

spanning-tree mst mstp-rstp

The spanning-tree mst mstp-rstp interface configuration command configures the port to
convert RSTP packets to MSTP instances. Use the no form of this command to disable the
configuration.
Syntax
spanning-tree mst mstp-rstp
no spanning-tree mst mstp-rstp
Parameters
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Default Setting
Enabled.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (Ethernet, port-channel)
Command Usage
This mode can only be enabled in MSTP mode.
This is non-standard mode that enables the mapping of IEEE RSTP packets to MSTP instances
as follows:
Incoming IEEE RSTP packets are mapped to the MSTP instance according to the default VLAN
of the port.
The switch sends information through that port only for the instance of the default VLAN of that
port. The information is sent in an IEEE RSTP packet with a bridge ID of the configured priority
for that switch multiplied by 4096, plus the VLAN number of the default VLAN of the port,
concatenated to the bridge MAC address.
If the port encounters a legacy STP BPDU on ingress, the conversion process will communicate
with STP.
Example
The following command configures the port 1/e5 to convert RSTP packets to MSTP instances.
Console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e5
Console(config-if)# spanning-tree mst mstp-rstp
