Debug congurations
Use the debug spanning-tree bpdu command to monitor and verify that the MST conguration is communicating as congured. To
ensure all necessary parameters match — region name, region version, and VLAN to instance mapping — examine your individual devices.
Use the show spanning-tree mst command to view the MST conguration, or use the show running-configuration
command to view the overall MST conguration.
MST
ags for
communication
received from same
region
The MST routers are located in the same region. If the debug logs indicate that packets are coming from a
Dierent Region, one of the key parameters does not match.
MST region name
and revision
The congured name and revisions must be identical among all devices. If the region name is blank, a name was
congured on one device and was not congured or was congured dierently on another — spelling and
capitalization counts.
MST instances Verify the VLAN to MST instance mapping using the show commands. If you see extra MST instances in the
Sending or Received logs, an additional MST instance was congured on one router but not others.
