3.2.5.5 Receiving a TcpPacketPair Request

  • Article

The server MUST first follow the steps as specified in section 3.2.5.1.

The TcpPacketPair request does not require any server state. Hence, if the Session header is missing, this MUST NOT be treated as an error.

The TcpPacketPair response MUST follow the rules as specified in sections 3.2.5.2 and 2.2.7.12.

As specified in section 2.2.7.12, the response consists of three $P packets. The server SHOULD deliver the $P packets to the TCP layer such that each $P packet is transmitted in a separate TCP segment.

After sending the response, the server MUST wait for another request to be received. Normally, a SelectStream request will be received at this point. How to process this request is specified in section 3.2.5.6.
