OK..so an IAM comes in for CIC 1 and you send to ASP1, then later the
REL comes in for CIC 1 and you send to ASP2?

Maybe I'm loadsharing between multiple ASPs.

Well if you are specifing a CIC range as a RK, then for other ASP to be
within the same AS, they also must specify the same CIC range..yes?

Why the limitation?

So...does that mean you only have one ASP/AS?

It is to be used as an RK, which implies routing decisions on an AS
level.

Ilie,

You're right.  The problem of TIDs/DRNs is different than CICs as loss
of an ASP will only result in loss of calls in progess.  The SG will
reshuffle new BEGINs to the remaining ASPs.   With CICs it's a little
more of a problem as CICs are being assigned by the network as it
initiates a call and not by the ASP.

I'm unclear what the proposal is for CICs.  Is it to be used as an RK
which implies routing decisions on an AS level, or is it more like the
TID which implies routing decisions on an ASP level.

Regards,
Lincoln

Lincoln,

the format of the TID/DRN labels is not prepared for dynamic handling.
An ASP cannot serve two TID/DRN labels. Moreover, it is not possible to
combine several labels in one.
