     This will instantly affect any channels associated with this
     session. If a read is performed on a session  with  no  data
     currently  available,  a blocking session will wait for data

     sion  will  return  immediately  with an empty buffer.  If a
     write is performed on a session with no room for more  data,
     a  blocking session will wait for room.  A non-blocking ses-
     sion will return immediately without writing anything.
