This scenario tests the most basic TCP functions of the TCP Implementation Under Test (IUT) and the compliance of the IUT Remote Driver to the DCA Protocol Laboratory TCP Remote Driver Specification. If the IUT and the Remote Driver do not receive good results on the first run of this scenario, further testing should be abandoned until the problems exhibited are corrected. INIT1 tests the TCP implementation for its ability to perform the most basic TCP functions: Active Open, Passive Open, transfer of data and closing. The scenario determines that the Remote Driver interprets Central Driver commands correctly, acknowledges the receipt of a command from the Central Driver and correctly formats IUT responses that it sends to the Central Driver. ____________________________________ Test 1: UNSPECIFIED PASSIVE OPEN ------ - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) implement a Passive Open which accepts an Active Open request? - Action: Remote Driver (RD) performs a Specified Passive Open. Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) does an Active Open to it. - Verification: Determine that a connection is made by finding an OPEN SUCCESS response from the LSD. Ensure that the RD acknowledges all commands received from the Central Driver (CD). Determine that all RD responses are correctly formatted. Success: The connection is made. The RD correctly interprets CD commands, acknowledges CD commands and formats IUT responses. Failure: Connection is not made or the RD does not correctly interpret CD commands, acknowledge CD commands, or format IUT responses. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -9- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Test 2: ACTIVE OPEN ------ - Can the Implementation Under Test (IUT) implement an Active Open? - Action: Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) performs a Passive Open. The Remote Driver (RD) does an Active Open to the listening port. - Verification: Determine that a connection is made by finding an OPEN SUCCESS response from the RD. Ensure that the RD acknowledges all commands received from the Central Driver. Determine that all RD responses are correctly formatted. Success: The connection is made. The RD correctly interprets CD commands, acknowledges CD commands and formats IUT responses. Failure: Connection is not made or the RD does not correctly interpret CD commands, acknowledge CD commands, or format IUT responses. Test 3: BASIC DATA TRANSFER ------ - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) send and deliver data correctly? - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) sends data to the Remote Driver (RD). The RD sends data to the LSD. - Verification: Ensure that all the data the IUT is directed to send to the LSD is received by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF). Check that all the data sent by the LSD is delivered to the RD by the IUT. Ensure that the RD acknowledges all commands received from the Central Driver. Determine that all RD responses are correctly formatted. Success: The IUT sends all the data it is requested to send and delivers all the data it receives. The RD correctly interprets CD commands, acknowledges CD commands and formats IUT responses. Failure: The IUT does not send all the data it is requested to send or does not deliver all the data it receives. Also that the RD does not correctly interpret CD commands, acknowledges CD commands or format IUT responses. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -10- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Test 4: SIGNIFICANCE OF COMMAND LCN TO REMOTE DRIVER AND IUT ------ - Do the Implementation Under Test (IUT) and the IUT Remote Driver (RD) correctly interpret the local connection name (lcn) specified in the commands the RD receives from the Central Driver (CD). - Action: The Central Driver (CD) sends a Send command to the Remote Driver (RD) which contains an lcn for a connection that is not established. The RD requests the IUT to send data to the LSD over this connection. - Verification: Ensure that the RD reports in correct format that the IUT reponds to the incorrect lcn with TCP ERROR: CONNECTION DOES NOT EXIST. Success: The IUT recognizes an invalid lcn. The RD correctly interprets CD commands, acknowledges CD commands and formats IUT responses. Failure: The IUT does not recognize an invalid lcn. Also, the RD does not correctly interpret CD commands, acknowledge CD commands or format IUT responses. Test 5: DETERMINE IUT STANDARD SEND BUFFER FOR TESTING PURPOSES ------ - Determine the standard size buffer that the Implementation Under Test (IUT) requires to guarantee that the IUT will output at least two segments without delay. - Action: The Remote Driver issues a series of Send commands. each command requests a larger increment of data to be sent. After each Send command, the LSD waits for the data to be delivered. Once the data is delivered, check the TCP segments collected by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) to determine if more than one segment was required to send the data. When more than one segment is used to send the data or the response TCP ERROR: INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES is returned by the IUT, the test is ended. - Verification: When a Send command data length requires the IUT to send the data in more than one segment, that data length is noted. If the response TCP ERROR: INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES has been reported, the data length of the Send command immediately preceding the command that caused that response is noted. - Observation: The IUT standard send buffer is noted for the test operator. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -11- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Test 6: CLOSING HANDSHAKE WHEN IUT INITIATES CLOSE ------ - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) correctly perform the closing handshake when it initiates closing. - Action: The Remote Driver (RD) performs a close. When the Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) receives the indication of peer closing from the Laboratory ReferenceImplementation (REF), it performs a close. - Verification: Ensure that the RD reports TERMINATE: CONNECTION CLOSED or TERMINATE: ULP CLOSE when the IUT indicates the connection closed. Check the TCP segments collected by the REF to determine that the IUT acknowledged the FIN from the REF before it terminated. Success: The IUT acknowledges the FIN of the REF. The IUT reports its connection closed. The RD correctly interprets Central Driver (CD) commands, acknowledges CD commands and formats IUT responses. Failure: The IUT does not acknowledge the FIN of the REF or the IUT does not report its connection closed. The IUT reports its connection closed before the REF closes. The RD does not correctly interpret CD commands, acknowledge CD commands or format IUT responses. Test 7: CLOSING HANDSHAKE WHEN IUT PEER INITIATES CLOSE ------ - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) correctly perform the closing handshake when its peer initiates closing. - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) performs a close. When the IUT reports receiving the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) closing, it performs a close. - Verification: Ensure that the RP correctly reports CLOSING and TERMINATE: CONNECTION CLOSED when it receives these responses from the IUT for the REF's closing and the final closing of the connection. Check the TCP segments collected by the REF to determine that the IUT did not send its FIN before being instructed to close by the RD. Also check that the IUT sends a FIN to the REF once it has been instructed to close. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -12- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Success: The IUT waits to be instructed to close before it sends a FIN. It sends a FIN when it is instructed to close. The IUT correctly reports its peer's closing and the closing of the connection. The RD correctly interprets Central Driver (CD) commands, acknowledges CD commands and formats IUT responses. Failure: The IUT sends a FIN in response to a peer's FIN before it is instructed to close or the IUT does not send a FIN when it is instructed to close. Failure also occurs when the IUT does not report a peer's closing or the closing of the connection. Other reasons for failure are when the RD does not correctly interpret CD commands, acknowledge CD commands or format IUT responses. Test 8: ABILITY TO RECONNECT TO COMMAND CHANNEL AFTER CLOSURE ------ - Does the Implementation Under Test Remote Driver remain listening after the Central Driver closes the command channel? - Action: The Central Driver instructs the Remote Driver to kill itself. After waiting five seconds to allow the connection to be cleared, the Central Driver attempts to reconnect the command channel to the Remote Driver. - Verification: If the scenario aborts when the Central Driver attempts to reconnect the command channel to the Remote Driver, the Remote Driver is no longer listening. If the Central Driver is able to reconnect the command channel, a Remote Driver is left listening after the command channel is closed. Success: A Remote Driver is left listening when the Central Driver (CD) closes the command channel to the Remote Driver, and reconnection to the Central Driver occurs. Failure: A Remote Driver is not left listening when the Central Driver closes the command channel to the Remote Driver. The Remote Driver does not correctly interpret CD commands, acknowledge CD commands or format IUT responses. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -13- TM-WD-8801/206/00 TCP SCENARIOS AND TEST DESCRIPTIONS Scenario BASIC1 --------------- Scenario BASIC1 tests the TCP implementation of Fully Specified Passive Open, and Active Open with Data. _____________________________________ Test 9: FULLY SPECIFIED PASSIVE OPEN ------ - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) implement a passive open which accepts an Active Open request only from a specified addresss - Action: Remote Driver (RD) performs a fully Specified Passive Open. Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) does an Active Open to it from a socket bound with the specified address. - Verification: Determine that a connection was made by finding an OPEN SUCCESS response from the LSD. Success: The connection was made. Failure: Connection was not made. Test 10: FULLY SPECIFIED PASSIVE OPEN ------- - Will the the Implementation Under Test (IUT) fully Specified passive Open accept an Active Open request from an unspecified port? - Action: Remote Driver (RD) performs a fully Specified Passive Open. Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) does an Active Open to it from a socket with a different port number than the one specified in the fully Specified Passive Open. - Verification: Determine that a connection was made by checking that the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) sent an OPEN FAILURE response. Success: Connection was not made. Failure: Connection was made. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -14- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Test 11: ACTIVE OPEN WITH DATA ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) send data on its SYN segment on an Active Open with Data. - Action: Remote Driver (RD) performs an Active 0pen with Data. - Verification: Check the IUT's SYN segment to see if data was sent on that segment. Success: The IUT sends data on its SYN segment. Failure: The IUT does not send data on its SYN segment. Test 12: ACTIVE OPEN WITH DATA ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) acknowledge data received on the SYN segment in its SYN ACK (before connection establishment)s - Action: Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) performs an Active Open with Data. - Verification: Check the IUT SYN ACK segment to ensure that it does not acknowledge data. Success: Data is not acknowledged on the IUT SYN ACK segment. Failure: Data is acknowledged on the IUT SYN ACK segment. Test 13: PORT NUMBER RANGE ------- - Can the Implementation Under Test (IUT) assign a range of local port numbers? - Action: Remote Driver (RD) does two Passive Open requests: one specifies source port 1 and the other specifies source port 65535. The RD also does an Active Open to destination port 65534. - Verification: Determine whether the IUT returns SYSTEM ERROR: REQUESTED SOURCE PORT NOT PERMITTED or the OPEN ID from the Passive Open requests. Ensure that a connection was made when destination port 65534 was specified in the Active Open. Observation: Result is to indicate the range of port numbers that the IUT allows to be assigned. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -15- TM-WD-8801/206/00 TCP SCENARIOS AND TEST DESCRIPTIONS Scenario BASIC2 --------------- Scenario BASIC2 tests the TCP implementation of graceful closings, its handling of aborts, precedence, and status. _______________________________________ TEST 14: DATA TRANSFER IN CLOSING STATES ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) provide graceful closing by completing data transfer after its Upper Level Protocol has initiated closings - Action: The Remote Driver (RD) sends a large amount of data and immediately closes. - Verification: Determine that the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) receives all the data the IUT was requested to send. Success: All expected data was received by the REF. Failure: All expected data not received by REF. TEST 15: DATA TRANSFER IN CLOSING STATES ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) provide graceful closing by continuing to send data after receiving peer's FIN segments - Action: The IUT is instructed to send data after it has received its peer's closing FIN segment. - Verification: Determine that the IUT sends the data by checking that all expected data is received by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF). Success: REF receives all data IUT was asked to send. Failure: REF does not receive all data IUT was asked to send. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -16- TM-WD-8801/206/00 TEST 16: DATA TRANSFER IN CLOSING STATES ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) deliver data sent after it has initiated closings - Action: Remote Driver tells IUT to close. On receiving the IUT's close, the Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) requests the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) to send data to the IUT. - Verification: Determine that the IUT delivers all the data sent by the REF. Success: IUT delivers all data sent by REF. Failure: IUT does not deliver all data sent by REF. TEST 17: UPPER LAYER PROTOCOL ABORT ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) perform an abort by sending a correct reset segments - Action: Remote Driver (RD) aborts the connection. - Verification: Check that the Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) reports a TERMINATE: REMOTE ABORT response and the RD reports TERMINATE: ULP ABORT or TERMINATE: USER ABORT. Success: The IUT sends a reset segment and the correct terminate response. Failure: The IUT does not send a reset segment or correct terminate response.

Examine the IUT reset segment for correctness and determine if all data sent by the RD was received by the LSD. Success: The IUT sends the correct terminate response, its reset segment is correctly formatted, and not all data sent by the IUT is received by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF). Failure: The IUT sends an incorrect terminate response or an incorrect reset segment. If all data is received by the LSD, this particular result is inconclusive as the data may already be sent before the Central Driver command to abort is received by the IUT. Test 20: PEER ABORT ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) detect its peer's abort and then discard data queued for sendings - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) instructs its Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) to abort while the IUT is sending data. - Verification: Check that the IUT reports TERMINATE: REMOTE ABORT and that the IUT stops sending data after receiving the peer's abort. Success: IUT correctly reports REMOTE ABORT and stops sending data after receiving its peer's reset. Failure: IUT does not correctly report its peer's abort. If all the data sent is received by the LSD, that particular result is inconclusive as all the data may be delivered before the Central Driver command to abort is received. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -18- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Test 21: MISMATCHED PRECEDENCE ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) provide the option to set a precedence value for the connection and make correct hecks of the precedence of incoming segments to the connections - Action: Remote Driver (RD) passively opens a connection with maximum precedence. Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) actively opens at a less than maximum precedence and Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) does not raise its precedence. - Verification: Determine that IUT sets the precedence option by checking the segments output by the IUT. Ensure that IUT aborts the connection when REF does not match precedence by looking for TERMINATE: REMOTE ABORT from the LSD or an OPEN FAILURE from the LSD connection. Success: IUT sets precedence option and aborts connection when peer's precedence does not match. Failure: IUT does not set precedence option or makes connection when precedence does not match. Test 22: PRECEDENCE ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) provide the option to set precedence for the connection and make correct checks on the incoming segments to the connection? - Action: Remote Driver (RD) passively opens a connection with maximum precedence. Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) actively opens at a less than maximum precedence. The Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) raises its precedence during the opening handshake. - Verification: Determine that the connection is made by checking that the LSD reports an OPEN SUCCESS. Check the IUT segments to ensure that precedence was set. Success: The IUT makes the connection and sets-precedence. Failure: The IUT does not set precedence or does not make the connection even though the REF matched its precedence. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -19- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Test 23: PRECEDENCE NEGOTIATION ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) provide the option to set precedence for the connection and raise its precedence to match its peer's precedences - Action: Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) passively opens a connection with a given precedence. The Remote Driver opens with a zero precedence. - Verification: Determine that the connection is made by checking that the LSD reports an OPEN SUCCESS.

It tests that the IUT: - allows the security of the connection to be set by the use of parameters in the open service requests - rejects a connection request with a wrong security level, - aborts the connection if a segment arrives with any mismatch of the security option. Tests 38 through 46 test basic security. Tests 47 through 50 test default security. Default security checks are those checks which both classified and unclassified hosts should perform. If the IUT does not pass Test 38 or Test 39 (the setting of security in the IUT Active Open and the IUT Passive Open), tests 40 through 46 are not executed.

The RD instructs the IUT it has allocated a specified buffer size for data. Then the LSD sends data equal to twice that buffer size to the RD. - Verification: Determine that the amount of data delivered to the RD by the IUT is not greater than that specified in the ALLOC request. If all the sent data is acknowledged prior to the RD sending another ALLOC, the amount of data delivered must be equal to or less than the buffer size specified in the ALLOC. If it is necessary for the RD to send a second ALLOC for all the sent data to be acknowledged, then results are determined by examining the TCP segments collected by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF). The segments are analyzed to make sure that no more data than was specified in the ALLOC was acknowledged before the IUT receive window was set to zero. Success: The IUT delivers data equal to or less than the ALLOC request. Failure: The IUT delivers more data than ALLOC specifies. Inconclusive: Analysis cannot be done to determine IUT's performance.

Ensure that IUT sends segment while the REF is showing a zero window with the urgent flag set, the value of the urgent pointer set to the number of bytes of urgent data to be sent, and a length no longer than 1. Success: The IUT sends one byte probe segmensts and sets the urgent flag and urgent pointer correctly in them. Failure: The IUT does not send one byte probe segments although urgent data is present, or it does not set the urgent flag or urgent pointer correctly in the probe segments it sends. Test 62: DIFFERENTIATION BETWEEN URGENT AND NON-URGENT DATA ------- - Is the Implementation Under Test (IUT) able to deliver urgent data? - Action: To make sure that the IUT can differentiate and deliver urgent and non-urgent data. The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) and the Remote Driver (RD) establish a connection. The LSD sends 1 byte of urgent data to the RD. It then sends the RD some bytes of non-urgent data. - Verification: Evaluate the DELIVER responses from the RD. The urgent data must be delivered in a separate DELIVER from the non-urgent data.

Test 63: PUSH SERVICE WHEN NOT REQUESTED ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) push data when not requested to do so? - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) and the Remote Driver (RD) establish a connection. The RD sends data to the LSD. lt does not request that the data be pushed. - Verification: Examine the TCP segments collected by the REF. The Push flag should not be set on any segments sent by the IUT except possibly the last data segment. (It is permissible for the IUT to set a push flag on the very last data segment sent). Success: The IUT correctly does not push any data or IUT only pushes the last data segment. Failure: The IUT incorrectly sets push flags on data not requested to be pushed. Test 64: PUSH SERVICE ON REQUEST ------- - Is the Implementation Under Test (IUT) able to push data on requests - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) and the Remote Driver (RD) establish a connection. The RD sends some bytes of data with a push indication. It then sends data without the push indication. - Verification: Examine the TCP segments collected by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF). The first data segment the IUT sends should have the push flag set and should contain at least the number of bytes of data sent with the push indication. The only other segment which could have a valid push flag is the last data segment. Success: The IUT correctly sets push flag only on pushed data and possibly the last data segment. Failure: The IUT fails to set push flag on pushed data or sets push flag on unpushed data. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -42- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Observation: The IUT allows it Upper Level Protocol to request rather than command push service. This observation is made when the segment with the push flag carries more than the pushed data.

Success: The correct TERMINATE responses are reported from the IUT and the REF. Failure: The correct TERMINATE responses are not received from the IUT and the REF. TEST 68: RESET FORMAT RESPONDING TO ACTIVE OPEN WITHOUT LISTENING PORT ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) send a correct reset segment on receipt of a SYN for a non-existent ports - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) initiates an Active Open to a port on the IUT without a listening process. - Verification: Check the TCP segments collected by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF). The IUT reset segment must have the format: sequence number = 0, acknowledgment number = the sequence number of the REF's SYN(segment<s+1>s),and the ACK and RESET flags set. Success: IUT uses correct reset segment format. Failure: The IUT uses incorrect reset segment format. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -45- TM-WD-8801/206/00 TEST 69: RESET FORMAT RESPONDING TO ACTIVE OPEN WITH DATA WITHOUT ------- LISTENING PORT - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) send a correct reset when it receives the SYN of an Active Open with Data for a non-existent ports - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) initiates an Active Open with Data to a port on the IUT without a list process. - Verification: Check the TCP segments collected by the Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF). The IUT reset segment must have the format: sequence number = 0; acknowledgment number = the sequence number of the last byte of data on the REF's syn segment, and the ACK and RESET flags set. If the IUT has not passed the Active Open with Data test, the reset segment must have the expected format of Test 68. Success: IUT uses correct reset segment format. Failure: IUT uses incorrect reset segment format. TEST 70: RESET FORMAT ON RECEIPT OF INVALID SEGMENT WITH ACK SET ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) send the correct reset format on receiving a segment with ACK set for a non-existent port? - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) initiates an Active Open to a port on the IUT without a listening process. The Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) omits the SYN from its initial segment but sets the acknowledgment flag and puts a value in the acknowledgment number. - Verification: Check the TCP segments collected by the Laboratory Reference Implementation. The IUT's reset must have the format: sequence number = acknowledgment number on the REF's initial segment, and the RESET flag set. The ACK flag must not be set. Success: IUT uses correct reset segment format. Failure: The IUT uses incorrect reset segment format. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -46- TM-WD-8801/206/00 TEST 71: RESET FORMAT ON RECEIPT OF INVALID SEGMENT WITH SYN AND ACK SET ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) send a correct reset on receiving a SYN segment with ACK set for a port in LISTEN state? - Action: The Remote Driver (RD) does a Passive Open. The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) does an Active Open. The Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) places an acknowledgment on its SYN segment. - Verification: Determine that no connection is established. Check that an OPEN FAILURE is reported from the REF. If the connection attempt correctly fails, check the TCP segments collected by the REF. The IUT reset must have the following format: sequence number = acknowledgment number on the REF's initial segment, and the RESET flag set. The ACK flag must not be set. Success: IUT resets and uses correct reset format. Failure: The IUT establishes connection after receiving invalid SYN segment or the IUT uses incorrect reset segment format. Test 72: NO RESET ON RECEIPT OF SEGMENT WITH BAD ACK ------- - Does the Implementation Under Test (IUT) erroneously perform a reset on receiving a segment with a bad acknowledgment number? - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) and the Remote Driver (RD) establish a connection. The LSD sends data to the the RD. The Laboratory Reference Implementation (REF) places an incorrect acknowledgment number on an outgoing segment. The REF retransmits the bad segment three times and then corrects it. - Verification: Determine that the IUT does not terminate the connection. If the connection is not terminated, check the TCP segments collected by the REF to determine that the IUT has transmitted empty acknowledgments. These acknowledgments must have the format: sequence number = IUT's current segment sequence number, acknowledgment number = the sequence number of the REF's segment (not incremented to acknowledge any of the data on the bad segment) and the ACK flag set. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -47- TM-WD-8801/206/00 Success: The IUT sends empty acknowledgments until it receives the corrected segment. The connection is not reset. Failure: The IUT resets the connection on receiving the bad data segment or the IUT acknowledges data segments with bad acknowledgment number. UNISYS Corporation 6 February 1987 -48- TM-WD-8801/206/00 TCP SCENARIOS AND TEST DESCRIPTIONS Scenario QUAL1 -------------- QUAL1 tests the TCP implementation to determine how many TCE it is able to provide. The scenario tests up to 145 ____________________________ Test 73: NUMBER OF TCP CONNECTIONS RESOURCES CAN SUPPORT ------- - Determine the maximum number of TCP connections provided by the Implementation Under Test(IUT). - Action: The Laboratory Slave Driver (LSD) performs 12 passive opens. The Remote Driver (RD) is instructed to consecutively open 12 active connections to each of these ports until it runs out of resources. - Verification: Count every connection where an OPEN SUCCESS is the response received on the IUT Active Open Request. When the response TCP ERROR: INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES is found or 144 connections are opened, the test is ended. The total number of connections the IUT can support equals the number of connections the RD has opened plus the connection for the command channel. Observation: The total number of connections the IUT is able to support is noted. If the IUT is able to support more than 145 connections (it does not run out of resources), this observation is noted.
