Hi.

This test was written in order to check the verbs layer and it was 
developed over an HCA (and being executed every day on all of our HCAs).

I don't know what is the expected result of executing this test over a 
switch and if there should be some changes in order to check switch 
features.
If I'll get this input, i will add the needed features/code to the test.
