MAC Address Withdrawal is a mechanism described in [RFC4762] to 
remove or unlearn MAC addresses that have been dynamically learned 
for faster convergence. Failure of mechanisms that control loop free 
connectivity among VPLS PE nodes may cause MAC Address Withdrawal 
messages looping among those nodes, leading to Denial of Service 
(DoS) or complete failure of control plane in the PE nodes. This 
document describes a mechanism to detect and prevent loops of MAC 
Address Withdrawal messages in a VPLS PE node.
