Figure 18 Network diagram and topology of MST region 3

MST region

An MST region consists of multiple devices in a switched network and the network segments among them.

All these devices have the following characteristics:

• A spanning tree protocol is enabled.

• Same region name.

• Same VLAN-to-instance mapping configuration.

• Same MSTP revision level.

• Physically linked together.

Multiple MST regions can exist in a switched network. You can assign multiple devices to the same MST

region. In Figure 17,

the switched network comprises four MST regions (MST region 1 through MST region

4), and all devices in each MST region have the same MST region configuration.

MSTI

MSTP can generate multiple independent spanning trees in an MST region, and each spanning tree is

mapped to specific VLANs. Each spanning tree is called an "MSTI."

In Figure 18, M

ST region 3 comprises three MSTIs: MSTI 1, MSTI 2, and MSTI 0.

VLAN-to-instance mapping table

As an attribute of an MST region, the VLAN-to-instance mapping table describes mapping relationships

between VLANs and MSTIs.

In Figure 18, the VL

AN-to-instance mapping table of MST region 3 is: VLAN 1 to MSTI 1, VLAN 2 and

VLAN 3 to MSTI 2, and other VLANs to MSTI 0. MSTP achieves load balancing by means of the

VLAN-to-instance mapping table.

CST

The CST is a single spanning tree that connects all MST regions in a switched network. If you regard each

MST region as a device, the CST is a spanning tree calculated by these devices through STP or RSTP.

The blue lines in Figure 17 r

epresent the CST.
