- Not fast as uplinkfast due to link failure at some where else at upstream of root port
- Indirect failure, start recalculate stp
- i.e. there is a problem at upstream of root port and root bridge is not reachable.
- After a failure of upstream, upstream bridge advertise inferior BPDU(worse cost to root) to root port.
- send Root Link Query(specific for BackBoneFast & ask Do u have alternate path)
- then root port containing bridge understand there is link failure to reach root bridge,
- and expires max-age time(defaultly 20sec) and recalculate path costs
- when baackbonefast is used time to reconverge is only the listen&learn time only, no max-age
- spanning tree backbonefast on global mode
