SRefresh msgs can used only if the corresponding PATH/RESV trigger msgs
have been sent with MSG_ID objects. That's how you can associate the
states..

MSG_ID_ACK/NACK can be either sent in seperate msgs or piggybacked in
other msgs..

Bundle msgs are always addressed to the immediate RSVP peer. The
sub-msgs contained inside the bundle msgs are themselves complete msgs
with their own rsvp header..

with regards,
Rajeev

Hello,

Are MsgIds used only for stable states refresh messages or also for
trigger 
messages. RFC2961 mentions using for any RSVP message - would mean they
are 
used for PATHTEAR, RESVTEAR etc.

Suppose I have setup-

Node1 ----- Node2 ------ Node3 ------ Node4

Both bundling and msgids used only between Node2 and Node3. I have one
lsp 
from Node1 to Node 4 and it is in stable state. Now I setup one more lsp

from Node1 to Node4. PATH message for this new lsp reaches Node2 and it 
suppose happens to coincide at the same time as Node2 is sending its
Summary 
refresh for the first lsp. Cuz of bundling would this ACK be
piggy-backed on 
the trigger PATH for the new lsp. If so would the destination IP of
bundled 
packet be changed to next-hop of Node3 or would it still be Node4 (cuz
PATH 
is being sent to Node4)
