From the keyboard of Gerald Heinig:

> So what is this FRMR then? Is it only transmitted by NTs or is it 
	there to maintain compatibility with something else?

It is what the standard says. It shall not be generated by a data
link layer but if it is received it shall be handled according to
the standard.

As i read between the lines, it is only transmitted, if ever, by an
exchange. And, if you read what FRMR tells the receiver, it tells
the receiver there is something wrong with the way the protocol is
implemented on his side ( = there is a bug in the software) - this
is something which cannot be said by a TE to an exchange, because the
exchange software it is bug free and always standard conformant whatever
the definition of bug free and standard conformant might be :-))))))
