Re: SUA: CLDT: RC Parameter

Howard,

I think you have that backwards.

Allow me to draw this yet one more time:

IPSP SE
     __________              __________
    |          |            |          |
    | +------+ |         AS | +------+ |
    | | ASPF | |        /-->|-| ASPF | |
    | +------+ |       /    | +------+ |
    |    |     |    RC/     |          |
    |    |     |     /      |          |
    | +------+ |    /       | +------+ |
    | | SGPF |-|<--/        | | SGPF | |
    | +------+ |RK          | +------+ |
    |__________|            |__________|

- needs 1 RC and 1 RK for 1 AS.

- AS can communicate with any other AS using SS7
  destination address.

IPSP DE
     __________              __________
    |          |            |          |
    | +------+ |AS2      AS1| +------+ |
    | | ASPF |-|---\    /---|-| ASPF | |
    | +------+ |    \  /    | +------+ |
    |          |     \/     |          |
    |          |  RC1/\RC2  |          |
    | +------+ |    /  \    | +------+ |
    | | SGPF |-|<--/    \-->|-| SGPF | |
    | +------+ |RK1      RK2| +------+ |
    |__________|            |__________|

- needs 2 RC's and 2 RK's for each AS-AS relation.

- 2*N RC's need be allocated for an AS to communicate
  with N other AS's
