Hi all,
How can MGW found the MGC is failure if MGC can't send Out of service to MGW.

For example:
Transport over UDP:
After MGW register, and receive SUCESS from MGC.
If no any message received from MGC later, how can MGW found it should register to another MGW again?

Whether can we add some standard methods like heartbeat to protocol ?

I think it is a big problems if in network supporting DUAL HOMEING ,MGC ruin, if MGW has no message needed to send to MGC, MGW will stay there all the time. And even another server finding problems and take over the MGW, but it will can't control it because it is still wait for the first MGC's message .

Thanks and regards
