| ... | Eth-IPv6-ICMPv6 on TG-DUTn for IPv6 routing over LISPoIPv6 tunnel.
| ... | *[Cfg] DUT configuration:* DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with IPv6\

| ... | between DUT1 and DUT2. DUT1 and DUT2 tested with 2p10GE NIC X520\
| ... | Niantic by Intel.
| ... | *[Ver] TG verification:* In short performance tests, TG verifies\
| ... | DUTs' throughput at ref-NDR (reference Non Drop Rate) with zero packet\
| ... | loss tolerance. Ref-NDR value is periodically updated acording to\
| ... | formula: ref-NDR = 0.9x NDR, where NDR is found in RFC2544 long\
| ... | performance tests for the same DUT confiiguration. Test packets are\
| ... | generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3\
| ... | flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with\
| ... | all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv6 header with\
| ... | IP protocol=61 and generated payload.
| ... | *[Ref] Applicable standard specifications:* RFC2544.
