Verify that Spanning Tree is running as expected after the Local Interface Failure Simulation
What is shown below as a result of the show spanning-tree command is:
1) Interface 1/43 has a status of Forwarding and is in the Role of Root
2) Interface 1/45 has a status of Disabled and is in the Role of Discarding.
3) Given that 1/43 was previously in the Role of Alternate and with the failure of interface 1/45 has
been assigned the Role of Root - this is the expected topology
