      Hop Limit of 254.

Observable Results

   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.

Possible Problems
