+Steps:
+
+1.  Start NFD on A,B,C.
+2.  On host A, create UDP face to host B, and add nexthop for `ndn:/test-loop` toward this face.  
+    On host B, create UDP face to host C, and add nexthop for `ndn:/test-loop` toward this face.  
+    On host C, create UDP face to host A, and add nexthop for `ndn:/test-loop` toward this face.
+3.  On every host, set strategy of `ndn:/test-loop` to *strategy under test*.
+4.  On host A, execute ndn-traffic-client to send 100 Interests to `ndn:/test-loop/A/<random>`.
+5.  On every host, execute nfd-status to see face counters.  
+    Fail if NInInterests or NOutInterests counter of a UDP face is greater than 200.
