Hi Brian, I understand this - if these were multiple signalling processes (either 4 ASPs and one SGP, or one ASP with 4 SGP/SGs or combination of four signalling process pairs, they'd work separately (communication between redundant processes - either ASPs or SGPs is out of the RFC scope). However how would this work with just single processes? I understood that multiple SCTP associations between two processes are not recommended, however standards do not forbid such configuration. thanks! Best regards, Dario Brian F. G.
