Re: Interpretation of RFC4666 regarding M3UA SCON message

Zoltán,

Check whether the SGs regenerated the SCONs.  They might be at
fault if the SCONs arrived at ASP2 from SG1 or SG2.

If that is the case, ASP2 might simply be responding to a cascade
failure congestive collapse, like so:

- ASP1 sends a lot of traffic to ASP2 via SG1 and SG2.

- network is disrupted between ASP2 and SG1/SG2.

- ASP1 redirects new and reattempt traffic directly to ASP2.

- ASP2 locally overloads and sends SCON to all nodes with its
  own point code as the affected point code.

- SG1/SG2 incorrectly regenerates the SCON to ASP1, inserting
  its own point code in error.

Even still, ASP1 should not throttle traffic to ASP2.
