The
differences in the tests are decently documented in the test =
specification pdf
that is on the TAHI website. Depending on whether you decide to select =
to run
the Host, Router, or Special Device test is based on the nature of the =
device
you are testing. The selection of router will run most, if not all, of =
the tests.
The host selection runs a subset of those tests which basically exclude =
any
major routing tests that a normal host machine will not need to handle. =
The
special device tests are yet another subset of that because the special =
device
might not be made to handle certain tasks and therefore those are =
excluded. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

In
answer to your second question, as far as the IPv6 ready self test tools =
are
involved, at this point it seems like the special device tests only =
exist under
the Phase 1 testing, which is what I’m guessing you are working =
on. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
