RE: M3UA : query on RC presence in messages

Brian,
	If it is known by configuration that which AS the asp is going
to serve into, is it mandatory to send RC from asp, even if the multiple
AS are being served by the asp? I mean SG can very well route the
message to MTP3 based on the DPC in the message. 
 
Regards,
Prabind

Lev,

Section 3.8.1 Error/RFC 4666

   ...

   The "No Configured AS for ASP" error is sent if a message is received
   from a peer without a Routing Context parameter and it is not known
   by configuration data which Application Servers are referenced.
