Hi Folks,

I have a doubt in section 5.2.3 of rfc 4666.
*5.2.3.  n+k Sparing, Loadsharing Case, Withdrawal of ASP*

*   Following from the example in Section 5.1.4, ASP1 withdraws from
   service:*

*        SGP                 ASP1                ASP2                ASP3
          |                   |                   |                   |
          |<----ASP Inact.----|                   |                   |
          |---ASP Inact Ack-->|                   |                   |
          |                   |                   |                   |
          |--NTFY(Ins. ASPs)->|                   |                   |
          |---------------------------------------NOTIFY(Ins. ASPs)-->|
          |                   |                   |                   |
          |                   |                   |                   |
          |<----------------------------------------ASP Act (Ldshr)---|
          |------------------------------------------ASP Act (Ack)--->|
          |                   |                   |                   |
          |-NTFY(AS-ACTIVE)-->|                   |                   |
          |-------------------NOTIFY(AS-ACTIVE)-->|                   |
          |---------------------------------------NOTIFY(AS-ACTIVE)-->|
          |                   |                   |                   |
          |                   |                   |                   |*

*   For the Notify message to be sent, the SG maintains knowledge of the
   minimum ASP resources required (e.g., if the SG knows that "n+k" =
   "2+1" for a Loadshare AS and "n" currently equals "1").*

*   Note: If the SGP detects loss of the ASP1 M3UA peer (e.g., M3UA
   heartbeat loss or detection of SCTP failure), the initial ASPs
   Inactive message exchange (i.e., SGP-ASP1) would not occur.
*

Question>>
1. When ASP1 withdraw request from AS and ASP3 becomes active why SG will
notify ASP2 with AS-ACTIVE??? As per my understanding the state of ASP2 is
not changed.
