Hi, In the table specified in Section 6.3, when a source timer expires in EXCLUDE mode, it says "DO NOT Remove Record". I am assuming this means the source record. If so, what is the use of keeping the record and not removing it as is done when the mode is INCLUDE? When the group timer expires and the transition happens to INCLUDE mode, all the source records that have expired timers are removed anyway. Why keep them till the group timer expires? Thanks. Suresh
