1 Configure an MST region, with the name being info, the MSTP revision level being
level 1, VLAN 2 through VLAN 10 being mapped to MSTI 1, and VLAN 20 through
VLAN 30 being mapped to MSTI 2.

Setting the Switch as
the Root/Secondary
Root Bridge
MSTP can determine the root bridge of a spanning tree by calculating. In addition,
you can specify a switch to be the root bridge by using the corresponding commands.
Setting a switch as the root bridge of a spanning tree
Setting a switch as a secondary root bridge of a spanning tree
Using the stp root primary/stp root secondary command, you can specify a switch
to be the root bridge or a secondary root bridge of the spanning tree instance
identified by the instance-id argument. If the value of the instance-id argument is 0,
the two commands specify the current switch to be the root bridge or a secondary
root bridge of the CIST.
A switch can play different roles in different spanning tree instances independently at
the same time. However, in one spanning tree instance, a switch cannot be the root
bridge and a secondary root bridge simultaneously.
