Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI): Unlike IST, this kind of instance comprises all static VLANs specifically assigned to it and at least, must include one VLAN. While each MSTI can have multiple VLANs, each VLAN can be associated with only one MSTI .
SPBV builds shortest-path trees but also interworks with legacy bridges running Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol and Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP). SPBV uses techniques from MSTP regions to interwork with non-SPT regions behaving logically as a large distributed bridge as viewed from outside the region.
The Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), originally defined in IEEE 802.1s-2002 and later merged into IEEE 802.1Q-2005, defines an extension to RSTP to further develop the usefulness of VLANs. In the standard, a spanning tree that maps one or more VLANs is called a multiple spanning tree (MST). Under MSTP, a spanning tree can be defined for ...
MVRP replaced the slower GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) in 2007 with the IEEE 802.1ak-2007 amendment. The 2003 revision of the standard was the first to include the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) which was originally defined in IEEE 802.1s.
VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) is a Cisco proprietary protocol that propagates the definition of VLANs on the whole local area network. VTP is available on most of the Cisco Catalyst Family products. The comparable IEEE standard in use by other manufacturers is GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) or the more recent Multiple VLAN Registration ...
IEEE 802.1D is the Ethernet MAC bridges standard which includes bridging, Spanning Tree Protocol and others. It is standardized by the IEEE 802.1 working group. It includes details specific to linking many of the other 802 projects including the widely deployed 802.3 (Ethernet), 802.11 (Wireless LAN) and 802.16 (WiMax) standards.
