Multiple Spanning Tree

Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) provides a VLAN-aware protocol and algorithm to create and
maintain a loop-free network. It allows the configuration of multiple spanning tree instances. This
ensures a loop-free topology for 1 or more VLANs. It allows the network administrator to provide a
different path for each group of VLANs to better utilize redundancy.
MSTP allows rapid convergence similar to Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP). RSPT is an independent
protocol and MSTP does not use RSTP. Since MSTP allows VLANs to be grouped in an instance, each
instance can have its own spanning-tree topology independent of other spanning-tree instances. This
