VLAN and MSTI Associations
Part of the task to configuring MSTP involves assigning VLANs to spanning 
tree instances. The mapping of VLANs to MSTIs is called associations. A 
VLAN, either port-based or tagged, can belong to only one instance at a time, 
but an instance can contain any number of VLANs.
