    Julian,
    
    In Section 1.2.5, the draft states that :
    "A target SHOULD NOT silently discard data and request re-transmission
    through R2T."
    
    In Section 5.5 the draft encourages the above to be performed by stating
    :
    "When a target receives an iSCSI Data PDU with a data payload digest
    error, it MUST discard it and request retransmission with a R2T."
    
    What is the intent of the former statement in Section 1.2.5, when digest
    error recovery requires just the opposite ?
    
    Regards,
    Santosh
