When two switches are connected through fibers in a crossed way, two or three ports may be in the
disable state, and the rest in the inactive state.
When a fiber is connected to a device correctly on one end with the other end connected to no device:
If the device operates in the normal DLDP mode, the end that receives optical signals is in the
advertisement state; the other end is in the inactive state.
If the device operates in the enhance DLDP mode, the end that receives optical signals is in the
disable state; the other end is in the inactive state.
# Restore the ports shut down by DLDP
