    Re: iSCSI padding should be 0



    
    Perhaps we should say MUST be sent as 0 and keep quiet about what the
    receiver should  do (check for 0 - we don't want that).
    
    Thanks,Julo

    Julian,
    
    Section 2.1 says the padding should be 0. I guess that is correct because
    one may not use CRC and therefore may not want to set them to 0. Wouldn't
    it
    be better if section 2.1 was more specific and mentioned when they must be
    0
    if there is a CRC. Also, I noticed at the UNH plug fest that at least one
    person thought "should" meant "must". Therefore, I don't think it should
    say
    "should" ... I think it should not mention the 0'ness unless there is a CRC
    present.
    
    Also,
    
            transmission.  Padding bytes, when presents in a segment covered by
    a
            CRC, have to be set to 0 and are included in the CRC.
    
    should say "when present in".
