Before the BRI line is connected, both router think it is the root bridge. Obviously, the topology is disconnected. I just don't know why BPDU messages would bring the line up.

Afterward, I bring the BRI line up by IP packets.

The topology now is connected and R5 is the root bridge. However, without IP packets, the line will timeout and disconnect automatially.
**********
R2#
*Mar  1 12:17:35.847: %ISDN-6-DISCONNECT: Interface BRI0/0:1  disconnected from 8358662 R5, call lasted 121 seconds

*Mar  1 12:17:36.937: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface BRI0/0:1, changed state to down
**********
I know there are several ways to make the line permanent (e.g. configure a large idle-timeout value, or dialer persistent). However, I just don't understand why BPDU
do not prevent the line from idle. BPDU is not a kind of bridge protocol???
