The transit port can transmit the control packet in preforwarding state, so the secondary port of the master
node can receive the hello packet from the primary port. Hence, the master node shifts its state to Complete,
blocks the secondary port and transmits the RING-UP-FLUSH-FDB packet from the primary port. After the
transit node receives the RING-UP-FLUSH-FDB packet, the transit node will shift back to the Link-Up state,
open the blocked port and refresh the FDB table. The procedure of ring recovery is shown in the following
figure. The master node on the major ring changes into the complete state, blocks the secondary port,
transmits the RING-UP-FLUSH-FDB packet to all transit nodes on the major ring and makes these transit
nodes to shift back to their link-up state, to open the blocked port and to refresh the FDB table; similarly, the
transit node and the master node on sub ring 2 also take on the corresponding change; due to the sub-ring
protocol packet’s channel recovery on sub ring 1, the secondary port of the master node can receive the hello
packet from the primary port, and the master node shifts its state back to the complete state, blocks the
secondary port, transmits the RING-UP-FLUSH-FDB packet and makes the assistant node open the edge
port and sub ring 1 resume to its complete state.
Figure 15: Ring recovery
Of course, if the transit node in Preforwarding state does not receive the RING-UP-FLUSH-FDB packet and
Fail Time also exceeds, the transit node will open the blocked transit port and resume data communication.
