algorithm 1.
To optimize traffic distribution, map B-VLANs to
different ECT algorithms.
To obtain a desirable path, you could change
the bridge priority and link metric values.
The following features help you manage the

network:

•

Dynamic hostname exchange—Enables you

to identify SPBM nodes with symbolic

hostnames.

•

Adjacency change logging—Enables you to

track all adjacency changes. To suppress

frequent adjacency change messages,
disable this function.

•

SNMP notifications for SPBM—Enables you

to send SPBM event notifications to an NMS.

(Optional.)

Configuring the AP mode

Perform this task to prevent temporary loops that
might occur when the topologies of SPBM
neighbors do not match.

Configuring basic SPBM settings on BEBs and BCBs

For SPBM to run, you must configure all settings in this section on all BEBs and BCBs.

Configuring MST region parameters

CAUTION:

Changing MST region settings causes spanning tree recalculation. Make sure you understand the impact
on your network before you activate the MST region settings.

SPBM runs on MSTI 4092. For two SPBM neighbors to establish an adjacency, you must activate MSTI

4092 on both neighbors and make sure their in-between link has connectivity. To forward traffic on the

link, you must also configure the same MST region parameters on the devices, including:

•

Format selector. The value for this parameter is fixed at 0.

•

Region name.

•

Revision level.

•

VLAN-to-MSTI mapping table.

To configure MST region parameters on a BEB or BCB:
