Assuming double exchange mode, IPSP-A should use routing context 1. By
sending ASPAC, we are telling remote node that this ASP is ready to
process traffic for a particular AS, and that AS is identified by supplied
routing context.

 as all other sua messages from IPSP-A to IPSB-B will use routing context of

No

Yes, because if IPSP-A wants to handle traffic for more than one AS then it
could send ASPAC messages(with respective routing contexts) for all of them.
After receiving ASPAC-ACK with a particular routing context, it could easily
identify AS for which peer is ready to process traffic.
