[M3UA] IPSP receiving ASP ACTIVE Ack

Hi Brian

            The M3UA RFC says when an IPSP(in INACTIVE STATE) receives an
ASP ACTIVE Ack, it has to change the state to ACTIVE. Is this applicable
even when the IPSP has not sent the ASP ACTIVE before also. 

 

Similarly for an ASP(in INACTIVE STATE) when it receives ASP ACTIVE Ack, is
this applicable ?

 

From M3UA RFC 4666 In section 4.3.4.3.1

        Either of the IPSPs can initiate communication.  When an IPSP
   receives an ASP Active, it should mark the peer as ASP-ACTIVE and
   return an ASP Active Ack message.  An ASP receiving an ASP Active Ack
   message may mark the peer as ASP-Active, if it is not already in the
   ASP-ACTIVE state.
 
   Alternatively, when using the IPSP DE model, an interchange of ASP
   Active messages from each end MUST be performed.  Four messages are
   needed for completion.
