Happy Friday!

According to the stackwise documentation, a 3750 stack will maintain layer 
2 forwarding tables during stack master election. But it uses RPR+, which 
takes 30 to 60 seconds to allocate a routing processor. So.. does this 
mean that inter-vlan traffic will keep forwarding while the RPR failover 
occurs? Or will it only maintain intra-vlan forwarding?
