* Protocol Session represents the finite state machine in underlying protocol, including timers and its purpose is to
* create a connection between server and client. Session is automatically started, when TCP connection is created, but
* can be stopped manually. If the session is up, it has to redirect messages to/from user. Handles also malformed
* messages and unknown requests.
*
* This interface should be implemented by a final class representing a protocol specific session.
