[c-nsp] Spanning Tree Instances

[ITLabworks Globaldesk]

Hi all

Please correct me if i'm wrong but i think this is related to a platform 
limitation. You will run into different (64 up to 256) spanning tree 
instances depending on the platform, specifically fixed switches. I am 
not sure about the modular catalyst. We had the same issue in the past, 
we solved the problem by upgrading from a 2960 to a 3750 catalyst.
