NAME

  EX_NH_NoneEN - No Next Header after Extension Header - End Node

TARGET

  Host and Router

SYNOPSIS

INITIALIZATION

  None

TEST PROCEDURE

Verify proper behavior of a node when it encounters a Next Header value of 59(no next header)

   TN                          NUT
    |                           |
    |-------------------------->|
    |   Echo Request            |
    |                           |
    |                           |
    v                           v

  1. TN transmits Test Packet to the NUT, 
     which contains a Destination Options header with a Next Header of 59.
     Following the Destination Optoins header is an ICMPv6 Echo Request header.
  2. Observe the packets transmitted by the NUT.

  Test Packet to Target Data is:

        IPv6 Header
            Version            = 6
            Traffic Class      = 0
            FlowLabel          = 0
            PayloadLength      = 32
            NextHeader         = 60 (Destination Options Header)
            SourceAddress      = TN Address
            DestinationAddress = NUT Address

        Destination Options Header
            NextHeader      = 59 (None)
            HeaderExtLength = 0
            OptionType      = 1 (PadN)
            OptDataLength   = 4
            pad             = {0, 0, 0, 0}

        ICMP Echo Request
            Type           = 128 (Echo Request)
            Code           = 0
            Checksum       = (auto)
            Identifier     = 0xffff
            SequenceNumber = 1
            PayloadData    = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}

JUDGEMENT

  PASS: The NUT must not send any packets in response to Test Packet.
