LMP's TE-link FSM

["Liran Siglat" <liran@cwnt.com>]

Hi,

Can someone clarify the two following states of the TE-link FSM (as defined in draft-ietf-ccamp-lmp-03.txt) : 
Up - Does this state mean:
a. The Te-link is now ready to carry data meaning the signaling protocol has successfully established a 
connection and the two UNI-Cs are connected.
b. Only the negotiation between the UNI-C and the UNI-N has finished (and now the signaling protocol 
can try to establish a connection between both UNI-Cs).
c. Other option - ?

Degraded - Does this state mean:
a. The TE-link is actually carrying data traffic now, but all primary CCs are down.
b. The TE-link still includes some data-links that are allocated to data traffic (but, they might not be 
actually carrying data traffic since the signaling protocol failed to establish a connection between both UNI-Cs)
and all primary CCs are down.
c. Other option - ?

Thanks, Liran.
