Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (MQTT-68) Message delivery retry is not required where no network failure is detected


     [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/MQTT-68?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Richard Coppen updated MQTT-68:
-------------------------------

    Proposal: 
WD11 1232 - 1254

Remove existing content in this section and replace with:

When  a Client reconnect where CleanSession = 0, both the client and server MUST redeliver any previous in-flight messages. This is the only circumstance where a Client or Server is REQUIRED to redeliver messages. 

While a modern TCP network is unlikely to lose packets, a Client or Server is permitted to attempt redelivery at other times. However, redelivery is not encouraged unless a network failure has been detected. 

Non-normative comment

Historically retransmission of Control Packets was required to overcome data loss on some older TCP networks. This might remain a concern where MQTT 3.1.1 implementations are to be deployed in such environments.

  was:
A compliant TCP network should not lose PUBLISH, PUBREL, SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE Control Packets. A Server or Client SHOULD NOT resend these packets unless a network failure is detected. 

Non-normative comment

Historically retransmission of Control Packets was required to overcome data loss on some non-compliant TC networks

> WD08 (section 4.3) states that if no response is received from PUBLISH, PUBREL, SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE within a reasonable period of time then the sender may retry delivery. 
> This attempts to cater for unreliable TCP/IP networks. Since modern compliant TCP/IP networks should not lose packets, then the sender should not retry unless a network failure is detected.
> The spec should be changed to reflect this and add non-normative content to describe the historical problem.
