STP Configuration Guidelines

If more VLANs are defined in the VTP than there are spanning-tree instances, you can enable STP on
only 64 VLANs. If the number of VLANs exceeds 64, we recommend that you enable the MSTP to map
multiple VLANs to a single spanning-tree instance. For more information, see the
"Configuring RSTP and MSTP."
If 64 instances of spanning tree are already in use, you can disable STP on one of the VLANs and then
enable it on the VLAN where you want it to run. Use the no spanning-tree vlan vlan-id global
configuration command to disable STP on a specific VLAN, and use the spanning-tree vlan vlan-id
global configuration command to enable STP on the desired VLAN.
