- Verify that NUT transmits valid NA in STALE state
- Verify that NUT transmits valid NSs in PROBE state

1. Send NS
        IPv6 header
            hop limit   = 255

        SLL option
2. Send Echo Request
        IPv6 header
            source      = TR1 (link-local)
            destination = HUT (link-local)
        Echo Request
    State: STALE (TN1) (link-local)
3. Observe NA [Judgment #1]
        IPv6 header
            source      = NUT (link-local)
            destination = TN1 (link-local)

4. Observe Echo Reply
        IPv6 header

            destination = TR1 (link-local)
        Echo Reply
    State: DELAY (TN1) (link-local)
5. Wait (DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME)
        Node constants:
            DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME: 5 seconds
    State: PROBE (TN1) (link-local)
6. Observe MAX_UNICAST_SOLICIT NSs [Judgment #2]
        IPv6 header
            hop limit   = 255
            source      = NUT (link-local)
            destination = TN1 (link-local)
        NS
            target      = TN1 (link-local)
        SLL option
        Node constants:
            MAX_UNICAST_SOLICIT: 3 transmissions
    State: NONE (TN1) (link-local)
