1. TN transmits an Echo Request that has an IPv6 header with a Payload Length of 0x33(51).
2. Observe the packets transmitted by the NUT.
Echo Request Data is:
IPv6 Header
Version = 6
Traffic Class = 0
FlowLabel = 0
PayloadLength = 0x33
NextHeader = 58 (ICMPv6)
SourceAddress = TN Local Address
DestinationAddress = NUT Link Local Address
ICMP Echo Request
Type = 128 (Echo Request)
Code = 0
Checksum = (auto)
Identifier = 0xffff
SequenceNumber = 1
PayloadData = {0x01, ... , 0x2b}
The NUT must generate an Echo Reply, indicating successful processing of the packets.
PASS: Echo Reply Received
IPv6 Header
Version = 6
Traffic Class = 0
FlowLabel = 0
PayloadLength = 0x33
NextHeader = 58 (ICMPv6)
SourceAddress = NUT Link Local Address
Destination Address = TN Link Local Address
ICMP Echo Reply
Type = 129 (Echo Reply)
Code = 0
Checksum = (auto)
Identifier = 0xffff (same as Echo Request)
SequenceNumber = 1 (same as Echo Request)
PayloadData = {0x01, ... , 0x2b} (same as Echo Request)
