There are only two possibilities for A.

SOLUTION #1

Since A has only requested 1-7, A *MUST* hold on to 8 and insert it back into the message stream once 1-7 have been retransmitted and received. Party B must respond with a SeqReset to MSG 9 because that is where B is currently at after all admin messages have been taken into account.

SOLUTION #2

Party A accepts the LOGON, but asks for 1-8 in the ResendReq. This will effectively place message number 8 back on the end of any retransmission stream so that <A> doesn't have to do any compicated queueing/insertions. When B responds with SeqReset to 9, all is back in sync
