Using Reserved Versions # # For a server to use a new version in the future, clients need to # correctly handle unsupported versions. Some version numbers # (0x?a?a?a?a, as defined in Section 15) are reserved for inclusion in # fields that contain version numbers. # # Endpoints MAY add reserved versions to any field where unknown or # unsupported versions are ignored to test that a peer correctly # ignores the value. For instance, an endpoint could include a # reserved version in a Version Negotiation packet; see Section 17.2.1. # Endpoints MAY send packets with a reserved version to test that a # peer correctly discards the packet.
