[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] Re: ips : Negotiation Reset.Julian, (I think I did'nt come across the first time. Here's another attempt !) Why is the reject reason code "Negotiation Reset" required ? Per Section 8.7, any failure of a text cmd/rsp while in FFP causes a "negotiation reset" (i.e. operational parameters are reset to thee values agreed upon during an earlier successful negotiation). So, why do you need an explicit reason called "negotiation reset" (?) Any failure of a text cmd at the target end would be conveyed through either a "data digest error" or "protocol error". The operational parameters are understood to be reset on any failure of the text sequence. Also, I suggest that the reject reason codes 0x09 & 0x0a (Bookmark Reject) be removed and replaced by a reason called "Invalid Target Transfer Tag". (now that bookmarks are gone.)
