SUA: RCs and DAUDs

All:

 

In the SUA RFC, DAUDs are permitted to not only have multiple
destinations, but also multiple RCs.  Since one determines network
domain from the RC, it's conceivable that if a DAUD has multiple RCs
they could be from different networks - i.e., the DAUD is
network-ambiguous.  Since there is no correlation of destination to RC
specified by the RFC, one would then have to generate a response for
each destination's appearance in each network referenced by the list of
RCs.

 

So, as a suggestion/proposal, if the SG receives a DAUD containing
multiple RCs, if:

a)       the RCs all reference one network, process the DAUD and return
status for the destinations (each status response would contain one
destination but all the applicable RCs from the DAUD)

b)      the RCs reference multiple networks, reject the DAUD with an
error, say maybe "Invalid RC".

 

Comments, rebuttals?  Or maybe I'm just off base here?

 

Mark
