Requests and Replies
Upon receiving most DSI requests, the client or server sends a reply message. This reply contains:
- the flags field set to 0x01 (reply)
- the command field set to the same value as the request's command field
- the same request ID sent in the request (used for the client to find the request being acknowledged)
- totalDataLength set to the payload length (if applicable).
- where applicable, the data payload itself following the DSI header. (See the individual command for details.)
The DSITickle and DSICloseSession commands do not trigger a reply.

“Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”
