TARGET

All Node

SYNOPSIS

v6LC_3_2_7_A.seq [-tooloption ...] -pkt <packetdef> [addrconf=<addrconfname>]

  -tooloption   : v6eval tool option
  <packetdef>   : packet definition file (v6eval tool option)
  <addrconfname>: how to configure address on NUT; boot/reboot

 detail of v6eval tool option: see perldoc V6evalTool.pm, perldoc V6evalRemote.pm

INITIALIZATION

 Reboot NUT or Initialize interface of NUT or Initialize IPv6 stack of NUT.

TEST PROCEDURE

Verify that a node can properly process neigbor solicitations and advertisements performing Duplicate Address Detection while the node is also performing DAD.

   1.  Initialize the interface on the HUT.
   2.  Allow time for the HUT to perform stateless address autoconfiguration and DAD.
   3.  After TN1 receives a DAD NS message from the NUT.  TN1  transmits DAD Neighbor Advertisement with the Target Address set to the NUT’s tentative 
       link-local address.
   4. Wait IDGEN_DELAY (1 second)

JUDGEMENT

   Step 2: The HUT should perform DAD on its tentative address for its interface by sending DAD Neighbor Solicitations.  The HUT should assign the tentative
    address to its interface.  Interface IDs are required to be 64 bits long and use the algorithm from RFC 7217.  
   Step 4: The HUT should transmit a DAD NS message with a in the Target Address set to a different tentative link-local address then in Step 2.

Possible Problems

  none.

CLEANUP

NONE
