Usage Guidelines
Use the
spanning-tree mst
instance-id
root
command only on backbone switches.
When you enter the
spanning-tree mst
instance-id
root
command, the software tries to set a high
enough priority to make this switch the root of the spanning-tree instance. Because of the extended
system ID support, the switch sets the switch priority for the instance to 24576 if this value will cause
this switch to become the root for the specified instance. If any root switch for the specified instance has
a switch priority lower than 24576, the switch sets its own priority to 4096 less than the lowest switch
priority. (4096 is the value of the least-significant bit of a 4-bit switch priority value.)
instance-id
Range of spanning-tree instances. You can specify a single instance, a range
of instances separated by a hyphen, or a series of instances separated by a
comma. The range is 0 to 4094.
root primary
Force this switch to be the root switch.
root secondary
Set this switch to be the root switch should the primary root switch fail.
diameter
net-diameter
(Optional) Set the maximum number of switches between any two end
stations. The range is 2 to 7. This keyword is available only for MST
instance 0.
hello-time
seconds
(Optional) Set the interval between hello bridge protocol data units
(BPDUs) sent by the root switch configuration messages. The range is 1 to 10
seconds. This keyword is available only for MST instance 0.
