Figure-5
If the active path between Switch A and Switch B fails, the backup path will work.
Consequently, the network topology is generated as shown in Figure 6.

If the path between Switch B and Switch C fails, Switch C will automatically
switch the alternate port to the root port. Consequently, the network topology is
generated as shown in Figure 7.
