RE: ASP Active

Ilie,
I was trying to answer/question Tolga's and Stanislav's point, when they
said that ASPAC declares readines of the application, i.e. SCCP-User in my
example.

I am of the opinion that M3UA should NOT be check the "readiness" of
SCCP-User, before sending the ASP Active. Or for that matter, it should NOT
even be aware of the states of SCCP-User

Hello Shashank,

M3UA should not have any knowledge of SCCP-Users, perhaps you meant
something different in your statement below. M3UA knows whether SCCP
is up and running, that is made visible by SG via DUPU, but it is not
necessary to be visible on IPSP to IPSP interface (M3UA), since SI is
not mandatory part of the RK, and RC in general is optional. Handling
of SCCP-Users is up to SCCP layer, in your network scenario.
