Re: M3UA and support for multiple SGs

Lincoln,

http://www.openss7.org/internet-drafts/draft-bidulock-sigtran-loadsel-04.txt

also addresses this problem as it permits a load selection based on SI.  Using
LOADSEL, ASP1 and ASP2 have the same RK:AS:RC but a different load selector.
When ASP1 fails to SG1, ASP2 is notified that that ASP1 has failed and SG1
pends messages waiting for another ASP to pick up the load.

(These problems were issues at last call that were solved a long time ago.  At
 that time, Lyndon told us that these items could be addressed in extension
 drafts.  rfc3332bis was far more concerned with arguing minor points and
 errata than correcting these identified fundamental gaps in the
 specification.  Immediately after letting the RFCs proceed, I wrote a set of
 six or so drafts to address each of the major issues.  Please read them: a
 significant amount of work and consideration went into their preparation.)
