Section V: Spanning Tree Protocols

Figure 28 illustrates the concept of regions. It shows one MSTP region
consisting of two AT-9400 Switches. Each switch in the region has the
same configuration name and revision level. The switches also have the
same five VLANs and the VLANs are associated with the same MSTIs.

Figure 28. Multiple Spanning Tree Region

The AT-9400 Switch determines regional boundaries by examining the
MSTP BPDUs received on the ports. A port that receives a MSTP BPDU
from another bridge with regional information different from its own is
considered to be a boundary port and the bridge connected to the port as
belonging to another region.
