 * The transport header contains info about the desired operation;
 * the payload consists of zero or more type/length/value (TLV) items
 * which specify parameters or results for the operation.
 *
 * For many operations, the request and reply messages have a fixed number
 * of TLVs (usually zero or one); however, some reply messages may return 
 * a variable number of TLVs.  A failed request is denoted by the presence
 * of an "error string" TLV in the reply message instead of the TLV(s) the
