Firmware 10.x question

"- re-enable any disabled ports when Loop Protection is disabled"

I assume this means any ports that were disabled because of Loop Protection... not just re-enabling any disabled ports? Yes?

If a port was disabled due to the loop protection feature when the feature itself was disabled, the port would stay disabled until manually disabled / enabled through either UI. This was undesirable behavior, so it was changed. AFAIK the mechanism loop protection uses to disable / enable the ports is different than the mechanism used by the UI, so there should be no confusion as to how a port entered the 'disabled' state.

Right... that's what I thought, but I wanted to confirm that's what was meant :)
