Multiple STP
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1s) is backward compatible with STP/RSTP and addresses the
limitations of existing spanning tree protocols (STP and RSTP) in networks to include the following
features:
• One Common and Internal Spanning Tree (CIST) that represents the entire network’s connectivity.
• Grouping of multiple bridges (or switching devices) into regions that appear as one single bridge on
the network.
• A VLAN can be mapped to a specific Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI). MSTI allows multiple
VLANs to use the same spanning tree.
• Load-balancing is possible as traffic from different VLANs can use distinct paths in a region.
14.2 Spanning Tree Protocol Status Screen
The Spanning Tree Protocol status screen changes depending on what standard you choose to
implement on your network. Click
Advanced Application > Spanning Tree Protocol to see the screen as
shown.
Figure 82 Advanced Application > Spanning Tree Protocol
This screen differs depending on which STP mode (RSTP or MSTP) you configure on the OLT. This screen is
described in detail in the section that follows the configuration section for each STP mode. Click
Configuration to activate one of the STP standards on the OLT.
