Usage guidelines
A larger maximum transmission rate value requires more system resources. An appropriate maximum
transmission rate setting can prevent spanning tree protocols from using excessive bandwidth resources
during network topology changes. HP recommends that you use the default value.
When the setting is configured in Layer 2 Ethernet interface view, it takes effect on only that interface.
Examples
# Set the maximum transmission rate of port Ethernet 2/1 to 5.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface ethernet 2/1
[Sysname-Ethernet2/1] stp transmit-limit 5
vlan-mapping modulo
Use vlan-mapping modulo to map VLANs in the MST region to MSTIs according to the specified modulo
value and quickly create a VLAN-to-instance mapping table.
Syntax
vlan-mapping modulo modulo
Default
All VLANs are mapped to the CIST (MSTI 0).
Views
MST region view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
modulo: Sets the modulo value in the range of 1 to 64.
Usage guidelines
You cannot map a VLAN to different MSTIs. If you map a VLAN that has been mapped to an MSTI to a
new MSTI, the old mapping is automatically removed.
This command maps each VLAN to the MSTI whose ID is (VLAN ID 1) % modulo + 1, where (VLAN ID
– 1) % modulo is the modulo operation for (VLAN ID – 1). If the modulo value is 15, then VLAN 1 is
mapped to MSTI 1, VLAN 2 to MSTI 2, …, VLAN 15 to MSTI 15, VLAN 16 to MSTI 1, and so on.
Examples
# Map VLANs to MSTIs as per modulo 8.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] stp region-configuration
[Sysname-mst-region] vlan-mapping modulo 8
