Hi,
RFC 4666 mentions about special cases in IPSP DE mode.
Following are the excerpts from RFC 4666 section 4.3.1:
---------------------------------------
Then the transitions in brackets can be used for the IPSP DE model
communication (DE-IPSPs) and are related to the special cases when
just one ASP*M messages exchange is needed, as follows:
- ASPSM messages. When exchanging ASPSM messages using only a single
exchange (only one request and one acknowledgment). .
Example: (see section 5.6.2) whenever a DE-IPSP is taking the
leading role to start communication to a peer DE-IPSP, it sends ASP
Up message to the peer DE-IPSP. The peer MAY consider the initiating
DE-IPSPs as being in ASP-INACTIVE state, as it already sent a
message, and answer back with ASP Up Ack. Upon the reception of this
answer by the initiating DE-IPSP it alsoMAY consider the peer as
being in ASP-INACTIVE state since it did respond. Therefore a second
ASP Up message exchange to be started by the peer DE-IPSP could be
avoided. In this case the reception of ASP Up Ack will turn into a
state change.
- ASPTM messages. When sending ASPTM messages to activate/deactivate
all the traffic independently of routing keys by not specifying any
RC, a single exchange could be sufficient.
---------------------------------------
The question is
1. Whether the sender of ASPAC message without RC should wait for corresponding ASPAC message from peer IPSP.
2. Whether the receiver of ASPAC/ASPAC ACK message should activate all remote AS as well as all local AS.

Debasri
