: Contradiction in RFC 4006

Section 5.6.3 says=20

   "A Final-Unit-Indication AVP with the Final-Unit-Action
   RESTRICT_ACCESS [in the CCA message] indicates to the=20
   device supporting this action that
   the user's access MUST be restricted according to the IP packet
   filters given in the Restriction-Filter-Rule AVP(s) or according to
   the IP packet filters identified by the Filter-Id AVP(s)."

However, the next sentence says

   "The credit-control server SHOULD include either the
Restriction-Filter-
   Rule AVP or the Filter-Id AVP in the Credit-Control-Answer message."

So, what happens if the referenced AVPs are not included in the CCA?

All things are bound together.
All things connect.
