MSTP (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol)
is also a standard defined by the IEEE 802.1s that allows multiple VLANs to be
mapped to a single spanning tree instance called MST Instance, which will provide multiple pathways across the network. It is
compatible with STP and RSTP. To support lager network, MSTP groups bridges/switches into regions that appear as a single
bridge to other devices. Within each region, there can be multiple MST instances. MSTP shares common parameters as RSTP
such as port path costs. MSTP also help prevent switching loop and has rapid convergence when there is a topology change. It
is possible to have different forwarding paths for different MST instances. This enables load balancing of network traffic across
redundant links.
The following subsections describe how to setup the
spanning tree protocol (STP)

and

2.7.1
Bridge Settings
To select a variant of Spanning Tree Protocol, the user can select the Protocol Version and set related parameters for that
particular protocol version in this STP Bridge Configuration webpage as shown in Figure 2.73. The settings are grouped into
Basic Settings and Advanced Settings. These settings are used by all STP Bridge instances in the managed switch. Table 2.60
summarizes the description of each parameter under the STP Bridge Configuration webpage.
