T2ShutdownTimeout1.seq - Failure to receive SHUTDOWN-ACK after retransmit times to 'Association.Max.Retrans'
To check that if SHUTDOWN is retransmitted for Association.Max.Retrans then association is aborted.
./T2ShutdownTimeout1.seq [-tooloption ...] -pkt ./T2ShutdownTimeout1.def -tooloption : v6eval tool option See Also: ../common/STD_PKT_COMMON.def ../common/SCTP_COMMON.def
Association is established between endpoint A and B. Arrange the data in endpoint A such that no SHUTDOWN-ACK is sent in response to SHUTDOWN.
Endpoint A Endpoint B ULP (ESTABLISHED) (ESTABLISHED)
<----- Terminate <---------------- SHUTDOWN | | T2-Shutdown | Timer | <---------------- SHUTDOWN . . Retransmit x . times
TEST DESCRIPTION:
1. Try to terminate an association between endpoint A and endpoint B by sending SHUTDOWN message from endpoint B.Don't send the SHUTDOWN-ACK or any DATAGRAM from the endpoint A. 2. Check A: If SHUTDOWN message is transmitted for ASSOCIATION.MAX.RETRANS times without getting an SHUTDOWN-ACK, Association is aborted and upper layers are reported of this.
None
RFC 4960
9.2. Shutdown of an Association
An endpoint should limit the number of retransmissions of the SHUTDOWN chunk to the protocol parameter 'Association.Max.Retrans'. If this threshold is exceeded, the endpoint should destroy the TCB and MUST report the peer endpoint unreachable to the upper layer (and thus the association enters the CLOSED state). The reception of any packet from its peer (i.e., as the peer sends all of its queued DATA chunks) should clear the endpoint's retransmission count and restart the T2-shutdown timer, giving its peer ample opportunity to transmit all of its queued DATA chunks that have not yet been sent.
