Kuldeep, The purpose of the Broadcast Traffic Mode within M3UA is to implement redundancy, using two or more identical instances of ASPs or SGPs, performing the same tasks. For example, all the ASPs in an AS could choose to request Broadcast Traffic Mode, and the remote peers would then send the same message to each ACTIVE ASP. The intent is that every ASP performs the same operation(s) with that message. If one ASP fails in some way, then the other(s) continue operating, in the hope that at least one of them survives. The Traffic Mode issued in M3UA messages describes how you would like to RECEIVE messages. How you send messages is dictated by the peer's requested Traffic Mode. I hope this helps, from Chris.
