• Sync and Rerooted – When the ports on Routing Switch 200 have completed the reroot phase, they assert
their rerooted signals and continue to assert their sync signals as they continue in their discarding states.
They also continue to negotiate their roles and states with their peer ports (Figure 8.11).
