Spanning tree configuration and management

Specifying the maximum number of hops for a BPDU (MSTP)
Use this procedure to configure the maximum number of hops for a BPDU in an MSTP region.
Specifying the maximum hops for a BPDU prevents the messages from looping indefinitely on the
interface. When you change the number of hops, it affects all spanning tree instances. The range is
1 through 40. The default is 20 hops.
To configure the maximum number of hops for a BPDU in an MSTP region, perform the following
steps.
1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface namespace.
2. Under the node, include the node from the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-xstp namespace.
3. Under the node, include the node element.
4. Under the node, include the element and specify the maximum number
of hops for a BPDU in an MSTP region.

Specifying a name for an MSTP region
Use this procedure to assign a name to an MSTP region. The region name has a maximum length of
32 characters and is case-sensitive.
To assign a name to an MSTP region, perform the following steps.
1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface namespace.
2. Under the node, include the node from the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-xstp namespace.
3. Under the node, include the node element.
