First off, I'm not speaking officially for Ascend. :-) If you want an official assurance you should give our TAC a call and they will be able to put you through to someone authoritative. I spoke to two engineers involved in Ascend's MP implementation just now. While indeed the behaviour you specified was true in pre 4.6 software (current version is 7), this issue has been resolved by including authentication information along with the client's given endpoint. This has been the case for nearly three years now. Nonetheless, if you believe there's still a problem, please open a ticket with us (or just mail me) with the precise details on how to reproduce it.
