on the Access interfaces on which the loop has been
detected.
Only the MP so chosen as the forwarder will advertise
NMPs discovered on these Access interfaces.
Because only one MBG in a given FP Mesh network will
actively pass traffic to and from the hierarchical network,
multiple MBGs can be present in multiple FP Mesh networks
attached to the same LAN, as shown in Figure 1.5.

Traffic Duplication in FastPath Mesh Networks
Although you can attach more than one FP Mesh network
simultaneously to more than one LAN, configurations in which
separate hierarchical networks are “bridged” by multiple FP
Mesh networks will necessarily generate duplicate traffic, as
shown in Figure 1.6.
