5.The transit node receives Health messages
The transit node receives Health messages from the master node. These have a state of Failed, which shows that the ring is still broken.
This is the packet shown in step 6 on page 50 of the master node debug output.

6.The link comes back up
The transit node detects that the broken link has come back up. It blocks the port to prevent a loop from occurring, sends a trap, and changes the EPSR state to

Block EPSR:test port:2 VLAN:2 EPSR test, Port 2 port up
EPSR INFO: Send trap EPSR:test
EPSR test
7.The transit node receives another Health message
The transit node receives another Health message. This message will make it back to the master node’s secondary port, because the link between the two transit nodes is now up.
This is the packet shown in step 7 on page 50 of the master node debug output.
