The MSTP Configuration of revision-level

Function

The revision-level command is used to configure the multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) revision level of the device. The revision level, region name and configuration digest are three decision factors to check whether the devices are in the same multiple spanning tree (MST) region. After the revision level is set, only the devices with the same revision level are in the same MST region.
The undo revision-level command is used to restore the default MSTP revision level of the device. By default, the revision level of the device is 0.

Format

revision-level level
undo revision-level

Parameters

Parameter Description Value
level Indicates the MSTP revision level. Numeral type. Range: 0-65535.
Default: 0.

Modes

MST region mode, OSN 3500, OSN 2500

Level

Operator level

Usage Guidelines

  • Run the config command to enter global config mode, and then run the stp region-configuration command to enter MST region mode.
  • The MSTP revision level, region name and VLAN mapping table are used to check the MST which the device belongs to.
  • The user configure the related parameters of the MST region on the device to divide the device into a specified MST region.
  • Two devices that belong to a same MST region meet the following requirements:
    • The region names are the same.
    • The revision levels are the same.
    • The configuration digest are the same. The configuration digest is calculated by VLAN mapping table of all the spanning trees and MD5-KEY through MD5 encryption algorithm.
  • The modified device revision level takes effect only after the configuration is activated.

Example

To set the MSTP revision level of the device to 32768, do as follow:
huawei(stp-region-configuration)#revision-level                                 
{ integer<U><0,65535> }:32768                                                   
                                                                                
  Command:                                                                      
          revision-level 32768  
To restore the default MSTP level of the device, do as follows:
huawei(stp-region-configuration)#undo revision-level
