[Patrick]
The actions in the first bullet apply to any received BRI (also to those
with the A bit set). Having said that, in the second bullet it is only
required  to specify the additional operation (i.e. sending a BRA) the
MN has to perform when the A bit is set. IMO the text you added is
redundant and not required. Do you have some particular scenario I am
missing?
