TEST PROCEDURE

• a host recognizes RouterLifetime.
• a host updates the Default Router List if its entry is expires.
• the Default Router List holds at the least two entries.

       RouterLifetime=5

  Wait (7 sec)

  ==== echo-request ===>

  <=== Judgment #7: multicast NS (if any) ====
       src=NUT's global
       dst=solicited-node[off-link global]
       w/ SLLA

JUDGMENT

  1. If the address is already present in the host's Default Router
     List and the received Router Lifetime value is zero, immediately
     time-out the entry.

  2. Whenever the Lifetime of an entry in the Default Router List expires,
     that entry is discarded.  When removing a router from the Default
     Router list, NUT must update the Destination Cache in such a way
     that all entries using the router perform next-hop determination
     again rather than continue sending traffic to the (deleted) router.

  3. NUT must retain at least two router addresses and should retain more. 

  4. NUT must throw an echo-reply to the default router (NUT or Y or Z).

  5. NUT must throw an echo-reply to the default router (Y or Z).

  6. NUT must throw an echo-reply to the default router (i.e. Z).

  7. NUT must not throw an echo-reply to any routers.
     NUT may throw multicast NS for onlink determination.

TERMINATION

  Send RAs to clear the Default Router List:
  - RA (src=TN) with RouterLifetime=0
  - RA (src=Y)  with RouterLifetime=0
  - RA (src=Z)  with RouterLifetime=0

NOTE

  The test does not invoke any remote command.
