So, finally:

<DocCD>

PVST+* is a Cisco proprietary protocol that creates one STP instance per
VLAN (as in PVST). However, PVST+ enhances PVST and uses Cisco proprietary
BPDUs with a special 802.2 SNAP OUI instead of the standard IEEE
802.1Dframe format used by PVST

PVST+ BPDUs are also known as SSTP (Shared Spanning Tree Protocol) BPDUs.

</DocCD>

Now, to permit PVST+ we need to allow SNAP frames :)

To support the quotation here is a debuging output:

Rack1SW2#debug spanning-tree bpdu receive
Spanning Tree BPDU Received debugging is on
Rack1SW2#
