MSTP maximum bridges limit

Hi all ,

 

I would appreciate yout advice for te following questions :

1. what is the maximum bridges that can be in single MSTP instance in one ring .

    I believe that answer is 20 for default configuration as the default hop count field in BPDU transmitted  from root   

    bridge is 20 .

    and for non default confiuration it can be tuned up to 40 .

2. Now lets assume we have a topology of multiple rings that are closed on the same root .

    Is there any limitation on the number of bridges in the network , as long as we keep on the rule that maximum hop

    count will meet the configured parameter from root to bridge in the MSTP instanec Tree ?

    Or other parameters / Timers that also can limit us .

3. In general in any MSTP topology - what is theh maximum switches that we can manage
