Adrian,

Thanks for your pointer.

Yes, on page 38 of RSVP-TE, it says that "A received path message without an RRO
indicates that the sender node no longer needs route recording.  Subsequent Resv
messages SHALL NOT contain an RRO. "

This means it is possible that RRO is not in Resv message if the RRO is not in
the received Path message.

Thanks.

Julia

Hi again Julia,

In this case "must" applies to "if present" and does not mean "must always
be present".

RRO is optional in a Resv but must be present in response to a Path that
contains RRO.  see section 4.4

Regards,
Adrian
