This section describes an example of correctly programmed state and Appendix A. Examples of Programmed States
This section describes examples of both a correctly and an
incorrectly programmed state and provides details on how the new sub- incorrectly programmed state and provides details on how the new sub-
TLVs described in this document can be used to validate the TLVs described in this document can be used to validate the
correctness. Consider the diagram from Figure 1, correctness. Consider the diagram from Figure 1.
Correctly programed state: Correctly programmed state:
