ICMP_BadVerifTag.seq - Handling ICMP message with Verification Tag is not 0 and does not match
To check the receiver silently discard ICMP message with Verification
Tag is not 0 and does not match the Verification Tag of the peer.

Association not established between endpoint A and B. Also
arrange the data in endpoint B such that upper layers send
Associate primitive to startup an association with endpoint A.

TEST DESCRIPTION:
1. Attempt to terminate an association between endpoint A and endpoint
B by sending ICMP message with Verification Tag is not 0 and does
not match the Verification Tag of the peer.
2. Check A: ICMP message is silently discard.
3. Check B: INIT message is sent again after expiry of T1-Init timer.

RFC 4960
Appendix C. ICMP Handling
Whenever an ICMP message is received by an SCTP endpoint, the
following procedures MUST be followed to ensure proper utilization of
the information being provided by layer 3.
ICMP1) An implementation MAY ignore all ICMPv4 messages where the
type field is not set to "Destination Unreachable".
ICMP2) An implementation MAY ignore all ICMPv6 messages where the
type field is not "Destination Unreachable", "Parameter
Problem",, or "Packet Too Big".
ICMP3) An implementation MAY ignore any ICMPv4 messages where the
code does not indicate "Protocol Unreachable" or
"Fragmentation Needed".
ICMP4) An implementation MAY ignore all ICMPv6 messages of type
"Parameter Problem" if the code is not "Unrecognized Next
Header Type Encountered".
ICMP5) An implementation MUST use the payload of the ICMP message (v4
or v6) to locate the association that sent the message to
which ICMP is responding. If the association cannot be found,
an implementation SHOULD ignore the ICMP message.
ICMP6) An implementation MUST validate that the Verification Tag
contained in the ICMP message matches the Verification Tag of
the peer. If the Verification Tag is not 0 and does NOT
match, discard the ICMP message. If it is 0 and the ICMP
message contains enough bytes to verify that the chunk type is
an INIT chunk and that the Initiate Tag matches the tag of the
peer, continue with ICMP7. If the ICMP message is too short
or the chunk type or the Initiate Tag does not match, silently
discard the packet.
ICMP7) If the ICMP message is either a v6 "Packet Too Big" or a v4
"Fragmentation Needed", an implementation MAY process this
information as defined for PATH MTU discovery.
ICMP8) If the ICMP code is an "Unrecognized Next Header Type
Encountered" or a "Protocol Unreachable", an implementation
MUST treat this message as an abort with the T bit set if it
does not contain an INIT chunk. If it does contain an INIT
chunk and the association is in the COOKIE-WAIT state, handle
the ICMP message like an ABORT.
ICMP9) If the ICMPv6 code is "Destination Unreachable", the
implementation MAY mark the destination into the unreachable
state or alternatively increment the path error counter.
Note that these procedures differ from [RFC1122] and from its
requirements for processing of port-unreachable messages and the
requirements that an implementation MUST abort associations in
response to a "protocol unreachable" message. Port-unreachable
messages are not processed, since an implementation will send an
ABORT, not a port unreachable. The stricter handling of the
"protocol unreachable" message is due to security concerns for hosts
that do NOT support SCTP.
