Hi, In the current draft, error request messages i.e. PANA-Notification-Request message with 'E' (Error) bit set, are sent after any received message that may cause an error.
I propose to limit the use of this specific mechanism to the handling of errors due to PANA answer messages received by the peer. In that specific case, it is actually the only way for providing error notification to the originator of the answer message (if needed). On the other hand, for the handling of PANA request messages, it is easier to always rely on PANA answer messages for providing error notification to the originator of the request, as done e.g. with Diameter. The 'E' bit would be set in the answer message header in order to distinguish error notification from "normal" answer messages (some PANA answer messages being used just as ack messages). When the 'E' bit is set in answer message, the Result-Code AVP would have to be present as well as the Failed-AVP AVP if needed. Any comment?
