Julian,

I'm somewhat confused b/n your response and the current wording on this
in the draft.

Per the draft, on a format error :
"While a session is active, whenever a target receives an iSCSI PDU with
a format error, it MUST answer with a Reject iSCSI PDU with a
Reason-code of Format Error." 

On a digest error :
"When a target receives an iSCSI PDU with a header digest error or a
payload digest error in an iSCSI PDU, it MUST answer with a Reject iSCSI
PDU with a Reason-code of Header-Digest-error or Data-Digest-Error and
discard the offending PDU."

So, are implementations allowed to just discard the PDU and not have to
send a REJECT(?).
If so, the above wording may need to be updated to reflect the same.

Regards,
Santosh
