The selected frame sizes are those previously defined under [Default Test Parameters](#DefaultParams), traffic should be sent with each IPv4/IPv6 address incremented by one. The rate at which the DUT learns a new address should be measured. The maximum caching capacity from LTD.Memory.RFC2889.AddressCachingCapacity should be taken into consideration as the maximum number of addresses for which the learning rate can be obtained. + + **Expected Result**: + It may be worthwhile to report the behaviour when operating beyond address capacity - some DUTS may be more friendly to new addresses than others. + + **Metrics collected**: + + The following are the metrics collected for this test: + + - The address learning rate of the DUT. + + **Deployment scenario**: + + - Physical → virtual switch → physical. +
