Hi all.

I am an absolute newbie in telecom domain, so kindly forgive me if I sound
incredibly stupid.


>From what I understand, an ASP is a process running on an AS, and a SGP is
a process running on a SG.
Each ASP <-> SGP link is a SCTP connection.

Also, I understand that SGP is responsible for message-routing, while an
ASP is merely an end-point for a SCTP connection.


Given that, are there any extra differences between a ASP and SGP (in
addition to the routing-capabilities of a SGP)?


I will be grateful for any pointers/clarifications.


Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
