Validation of Association Functions

Origination Date :06/21/1997

Originator:NANC

Description:

It has been requested that an explanation of how association functions be validated in the IIS.  Currently Lockheed takes the association functions from the original bind request and stores those. Then all subsequent operations performed by that associations are then validated against that data to verify that they are 'legal'.  All outbound messages from the NPAC are also validated against the association functions and if a service provider does not have the correct masking set, they will not receive the transmission.

Final Resolution:

This implementation needs to be discussed further and discussed with Perot and the SP’s to insure the implementation is consistent.
Perot is comfortable with making this change.  The IIS will be updated in 1.3 and 2.1.
