[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/MQTT-49?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Richard Coppen updated MQTT-49:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
What should the server do if it receives a packet that it does not recognize?
For example:
1. The packet is a malformed MQTT packet
2. The packet is some other protocol 

MALFORMED packets should be rejected before any further checking. For example, if a client send QoS 4 with a bad client ID then the packet should be rejected because it is malformed.
