If so, one of thekey parameters is not matching.• MSTP Region Name and Revision.– The configured name and revisions must be identical among all the routers.– Is the Region name blank? That may mean that a name was configured on one router and but wasnot configured or was configured differently on another router (spelling and capitalization counts).• MSTP Instances.– To verify the VLAN to MSTP instance mapping, use the show commands.590 Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP)
