// Network topology

//    SRC
//     |<=== source network
//     A-----B
//      \   / \   all networks have cost 1, except
//       \ /  |   for the direct link from C to D, which
//        C  /    has cost 10

//        |/
//        D
//        |<=== target network
//       DST
//
//
// A, B, C and D are RIPng routers.
// A and D are configured with static addresses.
// SRC and DST will exchange packets.
//
// After about 3 seconds, the topology is built, and Echo Reply will be received.
// After 40 seconds, the link between B and D will break, causing a route failure.
// After 44 seconds from the failure, the routers will recovery from the failure.
// Split Horizoning should affect the recovery time, but it is not. See the manual
// for an explanation of this effect.
//
// If "showPings" is enabled, the user will see:
// 1) if the ping has been acknowledged
// 2) if a Destination Unreachable has been received by the sender
// 3) nothing, when the Echo Request has been received by the destination but
//    the Echo Reply is unable to reach the sender.
// Examining the .pcap files with Wireshark can confirm this effect.
