SETUP

This minimal setup procedure provides the NUT with a default router TR1, a global prefix, and ensures that the NUT can communicate with TR1.

TEST PROCEDURE

Verify that a host properly processes invalid Redirect messages when redirected on-link.

            MAX_UNICAST_SOLICIT:   3 transmissions
            RETRANS_TIMER:         1,000 milliseconds

3. Send Echo Request

        IPv6 header
            source      = TR2 (link-local)
            destination = HUT (link-local)

4. Observe MAX_MULTICAST_SOLICIT NSs

        Node constants:

JUDGEMENT

[Judgment #1] The HUT should transmit a multicast Neighbor Solicitation for TR2, indicating the HUT did not create a NCE for TR2 upon reception of an invalid Redirect message.

CLEANUP

The Cleanup procedure should cause the NUT to transition Neighbor Cache entries created in this test to state INCOMPLETE and remove any entries from its Default Router and Prefix Lists.
