MSTP Sample Configurations

The running-configurations support the topology shown in the following illustration.

Router 1 Running-Configuration

The configurations are from Dell EMC Networking OS systems.
Figure 1. MSTP with Three VLANs Mapped to Two Spanning Tree Instances
Illustration of MSTP with three VLANs mapped to two spanning tree instances.
This example uses the following steps:
  1. Enable MSTP globally and set the region name and revision map MSTP instances to the VLANs.
  2. Assign Layer-2 interfaces to the MSTP topology.
  3. Create VLANs mapped to MSTP instances tag interfaces to the VLANs.
