To_Multi_Time_Exc.seq - Error Condition with Multicast Destination (Echo Request Reassembly Timeout)
Host/Router
To_Multi_Time_Exc.seq [-tooloption ...] -p To_Multi_Time_Exc.def
Common Test Setup 1.1
Verify that a node properly handles the reception of an error condition caused by a packet with a Multicast Destination Address.
This test verifies that the message processing rule,
An ICMPv6 error message MUST NOT be sent as a result of
receiving:
a packet destined to an IPv6 multicast address (there are
two exceptions to this rule: (1) the Packet Too Big
Message - Section 3.2 - to allow Path MTU discovery to
work for IPv6 multicast, and (2) the Parameter Problem
Message, Code 2 - Section 3.4 - reporting an unrecognized
IPv6 option that has the Option Type highest-order two
bits set to 10).
TN NUT
---------------------------
1.
=== fragmented (1st) packet ===>
src address : TN link local address
dst address : all node link local multicast address
The offset of fragment is 0
M Flag is set
2.
<< JUDGEMENT >>
<=== No packet ===
<< PASS >>
The NUT must not send a Time Exceeded Error Message to TN1 60 seconds
after it receives the first fragment of an ICMPv6 Echo Request.
