Hi, I can try…
StepsRemoved is a value that’s included in the Announce packet. It gets sent out from the T-GM with the value = zero. At every T-BC, the value is incremented by one (Announce packets are recreated at a T-BC) One it reaches your max value, (here 255), the Announce is dropped. This value is used in the alternate BMCA in 75.1 to find the shortest path back to the T-GM.

Thank you in advance. Regards, Ken Y
