Goal: Check single-hop ICMP connectivity over IPv6

Task #01 - ICMPv6 link-local echo with iotlab-m3

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between two iotlab-m3 nodes.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 26
  • Count: 1000
  • Interval: 10ms
  • Payload: 0B
  • Destination Address: Link local unicast (fe80::.../64)

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node.

Task #02 - ICMPv6 multicast echo with iotlab-m3/samr21-xpro

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between an iotlab-m3 and a samr21-xpro node.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 17
  • Count: 1000
  • Interval: 100ms
  • Payload: 50B
  • Destination Address: ff02::1

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node.

Task #03 - ICMPv6 echo with large payload

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between two nodes.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 26
  • Count: 500
  • Interval: 300ms
  • Payload: 1kB
  • Destination Address: Link local unicast (fe80::.../64)

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node. No leaks in the packet buffer (check with gnrc_pktbuf_cmd).

Task #04 - ICMPv6 echo with iotlab-m3/samr21-xpro 15 minutes

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between an iotlab-m3 and a samr21-xpro node.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 26
  • Count: 10000
  • Interval: 100ms
  • Payload: 100B
  • Destination Address: Link local unicast (fe80::.../64)

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node.

Task #05 (Experimental) - ICMPv6 multicast echo with samr21-xpro/remote

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between a Zolertia Remote node (CC2538) and a samr21-xpro node.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 17
  • Count: 1000
  • Interval: 100ms
  • Payload: 50B
  • Destination Address: ff02::1

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node.

Task #06 (Experimental) - ICMPv6 link-local echo with samr21-xpro/remote

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between a Zolertia Remote node (CC2538) and a samr21-xpro node.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 26
  • Count: 1000
  • Interval: 100ms
  • Payload: 100B
  • Destination Address: Link local unicast (fe80::.../64)

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node.

Task #07 (Experimental) - ICMPv6 multicast echo with samr21-xpro/zero + xbee

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between an Arduino Zero + XBee node and a samr21-xpro node.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 17
  • Count: 1000
  • Interval: 100ms
  • Payload: 50B
  • Destination Address: ff02::1

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node.

Task #08 (Experimental) - ICMPv6 echo with samr21-xpro/zero + xbee

Description

ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange between an Arduino Zero + XBee node and a samr21-xpro node.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 26
  • Count: 1000
  • Interval: 100ms
  • Payload: 100B
  • Destination Address: Link local unicast (fe80::.../64)

Result

<10% packets lost on the pinging node.

Task #09 - ICMPv6 stress test on iotlab-m3

Description

Rapid ICMPv6 echo request/reply exchange from two iotlab-m3 nodes simultaneously to one iotlab-m3.

  • Stack configuration: 6LoWPAN (default)
  • Channel: 26
  • Count: 200
  • Interval: 0ms
  • Payload: 1232B
  • Destination Address: Link local unicast (fe80::.../64)

Result

All nodes are still running, reachable, and the packet buffer is empty 3 seconds after completions (use module gnrc_pktbuf_cmd). Packet loss is irrelevant in this stress test.
