Summary of Defect:
The syntax description of the Reason parameter of the FIS-provider-abort service is incomplete. Three values shall be added "cannot establish contact with the peer", "contact refused by the peer" and "communication system failure". This will allow sections  2.4.5.3.12.8.1, 2.4.5.3.12.9.1 and 2.4.5.3.9.4 to be implemented correctly.

Impact On Interoperability:
None. This PDR makes SARPs chapter 3 (Service Description) consistent with SARPs chapter 5 (Protocol Specification).

Assigned SME: 				Sub-Volume II SME

Proposed SARPs amendment: 

Change Section 2.4.3.9.2.1 from:
The Reason parameter value shall conform to the ASN.1 abstract syntax FISProtocolErrorDiag.

to:
The Reason parameter value shall conform to one of the following abstract values:
a) "timer expiration",
b) "protocol error",
c) "sequence error",
d) "decoding error",
e) "unrecoverable internal error",
f) "invalid contract number",
g) "dialogue end not supported",
h) "undefined",
i) "invalid QOS parameter",
j) "cannot establish contact with the peer", 
k) "contact refused by the peer", and
l) "communication system failure".

SME Recommendation to CCB: 		
Two mandatory requirements in the FIS SARPs are in conflict and can not be implemented both. The current specifications prevent any implementation from being SARPs compliant.
