28.5.2 Combination with PVST+
A PVST+ cannot be used for protocol VLANs and MAC VLANs. Also, a PVST+ can run no more than 250 VLANs. Subsequent VLANs cannot be used. Single Spanning Tree can be used to apply a Spanning Tree Protocol to these VLANs even when a PVST+ is used.
Single Spanning Tree is applied to all VLANs for which a PVST+ is not running. The following table describes the VLANs subject to Single Spanning Tree when Single Spanning Tree is used with a PVST+.
