 * R-18725 The VNF **MUST** handle the restart of a single VNFC instance without requiring all VNFC instances to be restarted.
 * R-06668 The VNF **MUST** handle the start or restart of VNFC instances in any order with each VNFC instance establishing or re-establishing required connections or relationships with other VNFC instances and/or VNFs required to perform the VNF function/role without requiring VNFC instance(s) to be started/restarted in a particular order.
 * R-80070 The VNF **MUST** handle errors and exceptions so that they do not interrupt processing of incoming VNF requests to maintain service continuity.
-* R-32695 The VNF **MUST** provide the ability to modify the number of retries, the time between retries and the behavior/action taken after the retries have been exhausted for exception handling to allow the NCSP to control that behavior.
+* R-32695 The VNF **MUST** provide the ability to modify the number of retries, the time between retries and the behavior/action taken after the retries have been exhausted for exception handling to allow the NCSP to control that behavior,where the interface and/or functional specification allows for altering behaviour.
 * R-48356 The VNF **MUST** fully exploit exception handling to the extent that resources (e.g., threads and memory) are released when no longer needed regardless of programming language.
 * R-67918 The VNF **MUST** handle replication race conditions both locally and geo-located in the event of a data base instance failure to maintain service continuity.
 * R-36792 The VNF **MUST** automatically retry/resubmit failed requests made by the software to its downstream system to increase the success rate.
