MSTP Configuration
This chapter describes how to configure the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP).
- Introduction to MSTP
- MSTP Principles
- Application Environment
- Configuration Task Summary
- Licensing Requirements and Limitations for MSTP
- Default Configuration
- Configuring Basic MSTP Functions
MSTP based on the basic STP/RSTP function divides a switching network into multiple regions, each of which has multiple spanning trees that are independent of each other. MSTP isolates different VLANs' traffic, and load-balances VLAN traffic. - Configuring MSTP Multi-Process
On a network deployed with Layer 2 single-access rings and multi-access rings, configure multiple MSTP processes so that spanning trees of different processes are calculated independently and do not affect each other. - Configuring MSTP Parameters on an Interface
Setting optimal values for MSTP parameters can help achieve rapid convergence. - Configuring MSTP Protection Functions
Huawei datacom devices provide the following MSTP protection functions. You can configure one or more functions. - Configuring MSTP Interoperability Between Huawei and Non-Huawei
Devices
To allow Huawei and non-Huawei devices to communicate, set proper parameters on the MSTP-enabled Huawei device. - Maintaining MSTP
