RE: M3UA RFC 3332 - Sec 4.3.1

Girish,

This is implementation-dependent. An implementation may offer a user interface through which the SGP-user could set the
"administration" state of the ASP. For example, if the user doesn't want to accept a connection from a certain ASP,
she/he could set the ASP "administration" state to INACTIVE.

Hi,
Please help me in understanding the significance of the "Local management
intervention" in the following section from RFC 3332...

****************************************************************************
********************************
4.3.1 ASP States

The state of each remote ASP, in each AS that it is configured to
operate, is maintained in the M3UA layer in the SGP. The state of a
particular ASP in a particular AS changes due to events. The events
include:

* Reception of messages from the peer M3UA layer at the ASP;
* Reception of some messages from the peer M3UA layer at other ASPs
in the AS (e.g., ASP Active message indicating "Override");
* Reception of indications from the SCTP layer; or
* Local Management intervention.
****************************************************************************
********************************

What would this mean ... ? How do I change the ASP state using this...?

Regards,

Girish
