Selection Criteria
MST ID - Select the Multiple Spanning Tree instance ID from the list of all currently configured MST
ID's to determine the values displayed for the Spanning Tree parameters. Changing the selected
MST ID will generate a screen refresh. If Spanning Tree is disabled this will be a static value, CST,
instead of a selector.
