Subject: [AAA-WG]: Issue 162: Error replies to requests with no session ids

All,

In this issue, the author stated that section 7.2 was incorrect since it
implied that the session id was mandatory (given the ABNF provided).

I have looked at the ABNF further, and found that fixed position AVPs
are not mandatory, and have a qualifier prefixed. Therefore, the correct
fix for this issue is the following:

<answer-message> ::= < Diameter Header: code, ERR [PXY] >
                  0*1< Session-Id >
                     { Origin-Host }
                     { Origin-Realm }
                     { Result-Code }
                     [ Origin-State-Id ]
                     [ Error-Reporting-Host ]
                     [ Proxy-Info ]
                   * [ AVP ]
