Configure the MSH8900 Switch (Static IP Source)
If the copy running-config startup-config step is skipped or forgotten, the configuration
will be lost at the next switch reboot and/or power cycle! Make sure you perform this
step each time you change the configuration.
If the network infrastructure you are connecting the MS1300 to is configured with PVST, it is recommended that the root
of the CST (Common Spanning Tree built between the MSTP and the PVST regions) be the MS1300 itself in order to have
all ports of the MS1300 forwarding traffic. If the root of the CST is located in the PVST region, there is a high chance that
the traffic on some ports of the MS1300 will be discarded because of the spanning-tree blocking mechanism, hence
impacting VLAN-segregated traffic when VLANs are assigned to different physical ports. Configure the MST 0 instance
with the lowest spanning-tree root priority.
Copy this command list after having adapted it based on the values selected in Table 2.

Enter configuration mode.
Create VLAN 10 in the VLAN database.
Enter a name for VLAN 10.
Exit VLAN mode.
Enter VLAN 4093 interface configuration mode.
Configure VLAN 4093 IP address and subnet.
Exit Interface configuration mode.
Enter 1/3 uplink interface configuration mode.
Add VLAN 10 to the allowed hybrid mode VLAN list.
Exit the interface configuration mode.
Enter 1/7-24 interfaces (MSP nodes) configuration mode.
Add VLAN 10 to the allowed hybrid mode VLAN list.
Configure VLAN 10 as the native VLAN for 1/7-24
interfaces (optional / the payload data flow can also
be sent with a VLAN tag value of 10. In this case, the
OS of the MSP nodes’s OS needs to be configured
accordingly and this command line is not necessary).
Exit interface configuration mode.
Enter 1/25 management interface configuration mode.
Add VLAN 4093 to the allowed hybrid mode VLAN list.
Deconfigure VLAN 4093 as being the native VLAN.
Exit the interface configuration mode.
Enter the region name and revision.
Create MSTP instance 1 and assign VLAN 10 to it.
Create MSTP instance 2 and assign VLAN 4093 to it.
Configure mst 0 with priority 0.
Exit configuration mode.
Save the running-config to startup-config.
