Troubleshooting an MSTP configuration
This section describes the show spanning-tree commands to use to monitor, troubleshoot, and
debug the operation of a multiple-instance spanning tree configuration in a network.
The show spanning-tree commands described in this section allow for focusing on increasingly
specific levels of operation. For example, you can display debug information for:
• All MST instances
• All ports used in one MST instance
• A specific port or several ports used in one MST instance
Also, you can display the change history for the root (bridge) switch used as the single forwarding
path for:
• All MST regions, STP bridges, and RSTP bridges in an STP network
• All VLANs on MSTP switches in a region
• All VLANs on MSTP switches in an mst instance
