Enables or disables the specified MSTP instance.
Command mode: Global configuration
spanningtree mst <0‐32> priority <0‐65535>
Configures the bridge priority for the specified MSTP instance. The bridge
priority parameter controls which bridge on the network is the MSTP root
bridge. To make this switch the root bridge, configure the bridge priority lower
than all other switches and bridges on your network. The lower the value, the
higher the bridge priority.
The range is 0 to 65535, in steps of 4096 (0, 4096, 8192, 12288 ...) and the default
value is 32768.

Resets the bridge priority for the specified MSTP instance to the default value
of 32768.
Command mode: Global configuration
spanningtree mst forwardtime <4‐30>
Configures the forward delay time in seconds. The forward delay parameter
specifies the amount of time that a bridge port has to wait before it changes from
the discarding and learning states to the forwarding state.
The default value is 15.
Command mode: Global configuration
spanningtree mst maxage <6‐40>
Configures the maximum age interval in seconds. The maximum age
parameter specifies the maximum time the bridge waits without receiving a
configuration bridge protocol data unit before it reconfigures the MSTP
