A part of the ping packets for advanced reboot is not provided with a source mac address. It follows that the default mac address (00:06:07:08:09:0A) is used for packets from different ports. The DUT may generate a large number of unexpected fdb notifications. Assign mac address to ping packets to avoid the behavior.

… traffic (#4525) To fix the issue of small number of packet drops seen during warm recovery path in devices with too many vlan ports. In the device with too many vlan ports, after PR #4152, all the neighbors are exercised (instead on just 1 before). PTF can drop one of the MANY packets, and DUT may think that neighbor is unreachable. The packet drop happens when neighbor entry is removed by kernel as the neighbor state becomes UNREACHABLE/DELETE. Changes in this PR: Separate the IP network to check control plane and data planes. This is done so to prevent few packet drops after warmboot in case of device with too many vlan ports.
