RE: Test 4.4 when testing M3UA at SGP

Tim,

I don't know which document this test case is from but I assume it is one of
the drafts prepared for interoperability testings(?), so I believe it is a
safer approach to refer to RFC/IG rather than to such drafts.

4.3.4.1 from M3UA IG
  If an ASP Up message is received and internally the remote ASP is in
   the ASP-ACTIVE state, an ASP Up Ack message is returned, as well as,
   an Error message ("Unexpected Message).  In addition, the remote ASP
   state is changed to ASP-INACTIVE in all relevant Application Servers
   and all registered Routing Keys are considered deregistered.

The above is the current officially expected behavior.

Note for IG update: Figure 3 misses this transition.

   Thanks,
   Tolga
