Section V: Spanning Tree Protocols

Figure 183 illustrates the concept of regions. It shows one MSTP region
consisting of two AT-9400 Series 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 183. Multiple Spanning Tree Region

The AT-9400 Series 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.
