MSTP compatibility between XS728t and S3300 switches
I'm having trouble getting MSTP to work between XS728T and S3300 switches. The MSTP works fine between the same classes of switches. I'm worried that that problem is the incompatibility in the ca...
I did eventually configure these to work. The key was to make each vlan in one and only one MST. This is not the documented requirement of MSTP. However, when the 4089 vlan was left in the default MST or when it was doubled up in one of the other active MST's the XS728T and S3300 did not exist in the same domain even though they did have domains within the same switch regions. When I made three MSTs each with a single vlan the domain spread to include all switches.
