Relationship model is

1   3   
 \ / \
  2   4
   \
    7   5     8
     \ /     /
      6     9

Table is :

select 2 child, 1 father from dual
union all
select 2 child, 3 father from dual
union all
select 4 child, 3 father from dual
union all
select 7 child, 2 father from dual
union all
select 6 child, 5 father from dual
union all
select 6 child, 7 father from dual
union all
select 9 child, 8 father from dual

How can I get all values linked with value CHILD or FATHER = 2 ?

It must be

1,2,3,4,5,6,7

and not

8,9

since it's not linked to value 2.

How to achieve this by using CONNECT BY statement? Thank you.

p.s. this solution is very close to me but not working for my model:

Find all nodes in an adjacency list model with oracle connect by

DB version - 10.2.0.5.0

model-with-oracle-connect-by

So, aproximately strategy may be like this (for example start with node=7):

Step 1 (direction = up)

select t1.father,connect_by_root father as root,connect_by_isleaf from 
(my_table) t1
start with father=7
connect by prior father = child 

Result is 7,2,1,3 where 1,3 is high level root (isleaf=1)

Step 2 (get route for 1,3 direction=down)

select t1.child,connect_by_root father as root,connect_by_isleaf from 
(my_table) t1
start with father=1
connect by father = prior child 

Result is 2,7,6 where 6 is low level root (isleaf=1)

select t1.child,connect_by_root father as root,connect_by_isleaf from 
(my_table) t1
start with father=3
connect by father = prior child

result is 2,7,6,4 where 6,4 is low level root (isleaf=1)

Step 3 (get route for 6,4 direction = up)
