FIGURE 4-12 EPSR Network with Multiple Link Faults
In this network, systems C, D and E are isolated from the core network. Moreover if link 5 between system E
and F is restored, there is no Ring-Up-Flush FDB message, the ports on link 5 cannot be changed to Forwarding,
and systems D and E will still be cut off from traffic, even though link 5 is restored.
