Because we disabled switch port 24, the traffic destined for our data center switch (10.0.250.1) will no longer be able to use the original “MPLS” route (private network), Instead, the traffic will now utilize the routes and neighbors as identified through OSPF routing — this can be observed in the switch’s routing table. This is why the series of pings initiated after the original path has been disrupted (switch port 24 disabled) as we still have an alternate routable path available through the network.
