Hello Jugal

Take a look at this response…

Spanning-Tree Reconvergence

Hello Jugal Yes that is correct. Hmm, it depends on what you mean exactly when you say “control plane looping.” Another phrase for this is “lack of OSPF convergence.” The term “control plane” indicates that OSPF messages are being sent continuously and looping throughout the topology, which indicates a lack of convergence. This is something different from routing loops which direct user traffic to loop indefinitely throughout a topology. Such loops in this context may be considered consi…

I hope this has been helpful!
