What are the chances that SG may not send Notify messages to AS (M3UA)

Hi,



I want to know that if SG implementations can opt to not send the Notify message for AS state change?

As per the RFC 4666 sending Notify messages is a SHOULD clause which recommends but not mandate the sending of Notify message unless there are very strong reason to not implement recommended behavior.



In such cases the ASP implementations will be required to shield themselves from such implementations. Although I haven't faced such issue till now but I heard that one of the leading M3UA testing tool vendor has told that their implementation does not send Notify or it can send Notify may be after AS has gone through two or more state changes.



Please suggest.



Thanks and Regards

Deepak
