Does it mean that the next time the session comes up there is no
ipv4/multicast capability supported? Once again, this is implementation
specific and we could work both ways. The session comes up after idle timer
hoping that the sys admin would have looked into the matter OR we dont
support ipv4/multicast (or which ever SAFI limit exceeded).
