Sequence reset

Hi

Say you get a resend request for msgs from 8 to 16. You don't want to resend, but just reset the number.

My understanding is that you can send a sequence reset message. The other side should NOT pay attention to the sequence number of the message. It says the next number should be twenty. The other side sets its session to expect message number 20 next, it does not expect the above messages to be resent.

But at least one implementation expects gap fills from 8 to 16 and freaks if we do the above.

Cheers Danny
