ZHOU,

RFC 4666/4.3.4.2 ASP-Down Procedures:

   If the ASP receives an ASP Down Ack without having sent an ASP Down
   message, the ASP should now consider itself to be in the ASP-DOWN
   state.

   If the ASP was previously in the ASP-ACTIVE or ASP-INACTIVE state,
   the ASP should then initiate procedures to return itself to its
   previous state.

This is the "unsolicited" ASP Down Ack procedure.
