The simplest topology is to directly connect two link partners together without a switch or WLAN router. A direct connection example is between the DUT and a known good test platform such as an Ubuntu Linux PC. Figure 10-1 shows a direct connection where there is not a switch or WLAN router connecting the two link partners.
Connecting the two link partners generates traffic without further action because both platforms send out broadcast packets in an attempt to acquire an IP address.
