Abstract :
While IPv6 is increasingly being deployed in networks, including ISPs, the need to monitor and manage the associated protocols increases. In this paper we focus on the Neighbor Discovery Protocol and we motivate the importance to monitor it. We also present our approach for this task together with the functionalities we provide and the software, NDPMon, that we developed.
