Mapping MSTP Instances to VLAN

MSTP maps VLANs into STP instances. Packets assigned to various VLANs are transmitted along
different paths within Multiple Spanning Tree Regions (MST Regions). Regions are one or more
Multiple Spanning Tree bridges by which frames can be transmitted. In configuring MSTP, the MST
region to which the device belongs is defined. A configuration consists of the name, revision, and
region to which the device belongs.
The Instance to VLAN Page contains the following fields:
• VLAN — Indicates the VLAN for which the MSTP instance ID is defined.
• Instance ID (0-7) — Indicates the MSTP instance ID assigned to the VLAN. The possible field
range is 0-7.
