Dear Murphy 

After the connection is established, ports status set to false expect those who 
are between switches and no correcting a loop even ports where hosts attached 
to. 

I have printed ports status with basic topology:

Ports s1-eth1:1   ------> where host1 attached to
Flood False
Ports s1-eth2:2   -------> Link between S1 & S2
Flood True
Ports s1:65534
Ports s2-eth1:1   ------> where host2 attached to
Flood False
Ports s2-eth2:2
Flood True
Ports s2:65534 

In this case, why once s1 gets arp request,  broadcast it out of port1?   

Best,,,

I believe you're mistaken and the ports to which hosts are attached have flood 
enabled.  What makes you think this isn't the case?

Dear Talal
The ports that are connected to hosts are not creating loops, thus it will not 
be disabled.

Hello There,,, 

I'm a bit confused about spanning tree algorithm. After detecting all links, it 
disables the one creating the loop. However, ports where hosts attached to are 
still False(Means no flood?). Pings were successful, how ? 
Thank you!!!

Cheers,,,
