Julian,

The reject reason code "Negotiation Reset" is listed (newly) in Section
3.17.1.

If one of the text commands from an initiator were to be rejected by the
target for some other reason code than "Negotiation Reset", what is the
effect of such a reject on the operational parameters ?

Are'nt all operational parameters reset, any time a text exchange ends
unsuccessfully ? I suggest the draft clearly state that ANY
un-successful termination of a login/text exchange results in a reset of
operational parameters. The "Negotiation Reset" reject reason code can
be removed as well.

2) Also, what does the phrase "reset an operational parameter
negotiation " mean ? Are the parameters reset to their default values ,
or are they reset to their previous values ? This needs to be explicitly
clarified.

Thanks,
Santosh
