Part A: Redirect Source Address is Global
Verify that a host properly processes invalid Redirect messages when redirected on-link.
* [ND] Sections 4.5 and 8.1
* Packet generator
* Monitor to capture packets
Common Setup 1.1 is performed at the beginning of each test part. The Common Test
Cleanup Procedure is performed after each part.
Part A: Redirect Source Address is Global
1. TR1 forwards an Echo Request from TN1 to the HUT. The Source Address is the off-link global
address of TN1. The Destination Address is the global address of the HUT.
2. Observe the packets transmitted by the HUT.
3. TR1 transmits a Redirect message to the HUT. The ICMPv6 Destination Address is the global
address of TN1. The Target Address is the off-link global address of TN1. The Redirect
message contains an incorrect IPv6 Source Address (the off-link global address of TN2).
4. TR1 forwards an Echo Request from TN1 to the HUT. The Source Address is the off-link global
address of TN1. The Destination Address is the global address of the HUT.
5. Observe the packets transmitted by the HUT.
Parts A-I
In all Parts, the HUT should respond to the first Echo Request using TR1 as a first hop, as it
is the only router in the HUT's Default Router List. The HUT should also respond to the
second Echo Request using TR1 as a first hop, indicating the HUT did not process the invalid
Redirect message.
* None.
