Once a stable network topology has been established, all bridges
listen for Hello BPDUs (Bridge Protocol Data Units) transmitted
from the Root Bridge. If a bridge does not get a Hello BPDU after
a predefined interval (Maximum Age), the bridge assumes that the
link to the Root Bridge is down. This bridge will then initiate
negotiations with other bridges to reconfigure the network to
reestablish a valid network topology.
The following figure gives an illustration of how the Spanning Tree
Algorithm assigns bridging device ports.
