Non-Dell EMC hardware
OS10 supports only one MST region. For a bridge to be in the same MST region as another, the following attributes must match
the unique name, revision, and VLAN mapping. The default value for name is system mac. In case of Dell EMC, the user has to
manually configure an unique name in all the nodes to be in a single region. If you have non-Dell EMC hardware that participates
in MST, ensure these values match on all devices.
A region is a combination of three unique attributes:
● Name — A mnemonic string you assign to the region. The default is the system MAC address.
● Revision — A 2-byte number. The default is 0.
● VLAN-to-instance mapping — Placement of a VLAN in an MSTI.
Region name or revision
You can change the MSTP region name or revision.
● Change the region name in MULTIPLE-SPANNING-TREE mode. A maximum of 32 characters.
name name
● Change the region revision number in MULTIPLE-SPANNING-TREE mode, from 0 to 65535, default 0.

Configure and verify region name
OS10(conf-mstp)# name my-mstp-region
OS10(conf-mstp)# do show spanning-tree mst config
MST region name: my-mstp-region

Modify parameters
The root bridge sets the values for forward-delay, hello-time, max-age, and max-hops and overwrites the values set on other
MST bridges.
Forward-time
Time an interface waits in the Discarding state and Learning state before it transitions to the Forwarding
state.
Hello-time Interval in which the bridge sends MST BPDUs.
Max-age Length of time the bridge maintains configuration information before it refreshes that information by
recomputing the MST topology.
