My *suspicion* is that the configuration would represent a set of parameters for both async mode and echo mode. These will not alter themselves automatically. The operational mode might reflect timers that have backed off. However, this is also true if an implementation does various forms of session auto-tuning. An example I'm aware of is a decrease in timer aggressiveness as part of a high availability switchover event. -- Jeff
