Errata exists for this version of the document.
When a fatal error occurs, the Server shall send an Error Message to the Client and closes the TransportConnection gracefully. When the Client receives an Error Message it reports the error to the application and closes the TransportConnection gracefully. If a Client encounters a fatal error, it shall report the error to the application and send a CloseSecureChannel Message. The Server shall close the TransportConnection gracefully when it receives the CloseSecureChannel Message
