Configuring MST Using Cisco NX-OS
Command or Action
Example:
switch(config-mst)# exit
switch(config)#
Step 5
show spanning-tree mst
Example:
switch# show spanning-tree mst
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
Example:
switch(config)# copy running-config startup-config
This example shows how to configure the revision number of the MSTI region to 5:
switch# config t
switch(config)# spanning-tree mst configuration
switch(config-mst)# revision 5
switch(config-mst)#
Specifying the Configuration on an MST Region
If two or more devices are to be in the same MST region, they must have the same VLAN-to-instance mapping,
the same configuration revision number, and the same MST name.
A region can have one member or multiple members with the same MST configuration; each member must
be capable of processing IEEE 802.1w RSTP BPDUs. There is no limit to the number of MST regions in a
network, but each region can support only up to 65 MST instances. You can assign a VLAN to only one MST
instance at a time.
Before You Begin
Ensure that you are in the correct VDC (or enter the switchto vdc command).
