NAME

  AsconfDupNoCached.seq - ASCONF chunk is received with duplicate Peer Sequence Number but no cached ASCONF-ACK is outstanding


PURPOSE

  To chech that if ASCONF chunk is received with duplicate Peer Sequence
  Number and not cached ASCONF-ACK response exists then the endpoint should
  skip the ASCONF Chunk and not include ASCONF-ACK Chunk for that chunk.


SYNOPSIS

  ./AsconfDupNoCached.seq [-tooloption ...] -pkt ./AsconfDupNoCached.def
    -tooloption : v6eval tool option

            ../common/SCTP_COMMON.def


PRE-TEST CONDITION

  Association is established between endpoint A and B. Arrange date
  in endpoint A such that ASCONF chunk with duplicate Peer Sequence
  Number is sent to endpoint B.


TEST PROCEDURE

  Endpoint A                           Endpoint B                ULP
  (ESTABLISHED)                        (ESTABLISHED)
  ASCONF        ----------------->       Discard
  (duplicate Peer Sequence Number)
  TEST DESCRIPTION:
  1. Send ASCONF-ACK chunk from endpoint A to B with duplicate Peer
     Sequence Number but no cached ASCONF-ACK is outstanding.
  2. Check A: ASCONF chunk should be discarded at endpoint B and no
     ASCONF-ACK chunk can be received at endpoint A.


NOTE

  None


REFERENCE

  RFC 5061
  5.2.  Upon Reception of an ASCONF Chunk
    After identification and verification of the association, the
    following should be performed to properly process the ASCONF Chunk:
    E2)  If the value found in the Sequence Number is less than the
         ('Peer- Sequence-Number' + 1), simply skip to the next ASCONF,
         and include in the outbound response packet any previously
         cached ASCONF-ACK response that was sent and saved that matches
         the Sequence Number of the ASCONF.  Note: It is possible that no
         cached ASCONF-ACK Chunk exists.  This will occur when an older
         ASCONF arrives out of order.  In such a case, the receiver
         should skip the ASCONF Chunk and not include ASCONF-ACK Chunk
         for that chunk.
