  1. TN transmits 1st Fragments.

            data               = 32 octets from the head of ICMP Echo request


JUDGEMENT

  PASS: The NUT must not transmit an Echo Reply to TN, as the Echo Request was not completed.
        The NUT should transmit an ICMPv6 Time Exceeded Message to TN 
        sixty seconds after reception of 1st Fragment 
        with a code field value of 1(Fragment Reassembly Time Exceeded).
             - The Source Address of the Packet must be the same as the Global 
               Destination Address of TN's Echo Request packet.
             - The Destination Address should be the same as the Global 
               Source Address of TN's Echo Request packet.
             - The invoking Echo Request packet included in the Error 
               Message must not exceed minimum IPv6 MTU.
        IPv6 Header
            Version             = 6
            Traffic Class       = 0
            FlowLabel           = 0
            PayloadLength       = 88
            NextHeader          = 58 (ICMPv6)
            SourceAddress       = NUT Global Address
            Destination Address = TN Global Address
        ICMP Echo Reply
            Type           = 3 (Time Exceeded)
            Code           = 1 (Fragment reassembly time exceeded)
            Checksum       = (auto)
            PayloadData    = (Sent Packet (1st))
