MSTP Properties
1.
STP Version: Click “STP Version” drop-down menu to choose “MSTP”
from “STP Version” drop-down list.
2. Region Name: Click in “Region Name” text box to create an MST region
and specify a name to it. MST bridges of a region form different
spanning trees for different VLANs. By default, each MST bridge starts
with the region name as its bridge address. This means each MST
bridge is a region by itself, unless specifically added to one.
3. Revision Level: Click in “Revision Level” text box to specify the number
for configuration information. The default value of revision number is 0.
4. Max Hops: Click in “Max Hops” text box to specify the maximum allowed
hops for BPDU in an MST region. This parameter is used by all the
instances of the MST. Specifying the max hops for a BPDU prevents the
messages from looping indefinetely in the network. When a bridge
receives a MST BPDU that has exceeded the allowed max-hops, it
discards the BPDU.
5. Update Setting: Click “Update Setting” button when you finished MSTP
Properties setting.
