What is swMSTPInstId?

This read-only value (0-15) identifies a specific MSTP instance in the swMSTPInstanceCtrlTable; instance 0 is reserved for the CIST (Common and Internal Spanning Tree). Admins use this index to distinguish the default region-wide tree from up to 15 additional MSTIs.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.15.2.3.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> MSTP-MIB::swMSTPInstId

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.15.2.3.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> MSTP-MIB::swMSTPInstId.1
