Re: [M3UA] ASP UP in IPSP DE mode

Suresh,

If by Model 2 you mean that Node2 can communicate with Node3 via Node1
then it is explicitly not supported by IPSP in M3UA.  Only point-to-point.
If you want Node2 to communication with Node3 via Node1, then Node1 must
be an SG and Node2 and Node3 must be ASPs.  That is, the recommended mode
is an ASP-SG mode.
