TEST PROCEDURE

- Verify that a host ignores Router Solicitations and does not update its Neighbor Cache.

1. Send RS

        IPv6 header
            hop limit   = 255
            source      = TN1 (link-local)
            destination = all-routers multicast address
        RS
        SLL option

2. Wait (RETRANS_TIMER * MAX_*CAST_SOLICIT)

        Node constants:
            MAX_MULTICAST_SOLICIT: 3 transmissions
            MAX_UNICAST_SOLICIT:   3 transmissions
            RETRANS_TIMER:         1,000 milliseconds

3. Send Echo Request

        IPv6 header
            source      = TN1 (link-local)
            destination = HUT (link-local)
        Echo Request

4. Observe MAX_MULTICAST_SOLICIT NSs

        IPv6 header
            hop limit   = 255
            source      = HUT (link-local)
            destination = TN1 (solicited-node multicast address)
        NS
            target      = TN1 (link-local)
        SLL option

        Node constants:
            MAX_MULTICAST_SOLICIT: 3 transmissions

JUDGEMENT

[Judgment #1] the HUT should send a multicast Neighbor Solicitation for TN1 in Step 5, indicating the HUT did not process the Router Solicitation from TN1.

CLEANUP

none
