Hello again Bob,

In contrast, the MC state machine, on sending a new CONF, moves from ESTABLISHED straight to WAIT FOR CONF RESPONSE. Either way is fine but we should probably be consistent.

Indeed, in the MP state machine, you go from ESTABLISHED to ADV in case you had already created a CLUE session and some of the settings have changed. In that case, you need to start everything from scratch. In the MC’s case, if you have an already established session (ESTABLISHED state) and you want to modify it somehow, you simply send a new CONF message and wait for the provider’s answer (WAIT FOR CONF RESPONSE). Don’t you agree with this logic?
