Network Reroute in your youtube video?

How did you facilitate this? just with standard Spanning tree protocal in your switches? or some other system?
and if so did you just establish higher priority to the original airfiber feed port over the mimosa?

You need to re-watch the video.

I explain that I have a Cisco 2951 router at each tower and I am using OSPF with BFD.

My fiber from Level 3 come into a site I rent on a Farm which you can see on UBNT forum if you search for "Life After airFIBER" where there is an airFIBER 24 link that shoots into one tower on my ring and my backup MIMOSA link shoots into another tower on my main OSPF ring.

OSPF is handling the fail over.

ok, I just could not see how spanning tree would do it that efficiently,
and I admit, I watched video while working,
very nice though

A routed network is just that much better than a flat network. There's a reason those big ISPs and Telecoms are using routing in their network...
