Re: Traffic handling modes of SGPs

Hello Folks,

is my mail out of topic?

If you need that I introduce myself, here is some info:
- at the moment I am looking at SIGTRAN from operation and maintenance
perspective
- for a couple of years I am working as a telecommunication engineer
and SW designer of TMN products in ADD s.r.l. Chisinau

Of course I am asking about a definition, which is an informative part
of the SUA RFC, I assume.

Nevertheless, shall the ASP be able to broadcast its messages to all
SGPs of an SG? According to the SGP definition in SUA RFC, it seems so
to me.

Regards

Ilie
