IPv6 Neighbor Discovery

Overview of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery

IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND) defines a group of messages and processes for discovering neighboring nodes. The IPv6 Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND) protocol is an enhancement of IPv6 ND.

Understanding IPv6 Neighbor Discovery

This section describes the IPv6 ND and SEND mechanisms.

Configuring IPv6 ND

This section describes how to configure IPv6 ND.

Configuring IPv6 SEND

The SEcure Neighbor Discovery (SEND) protocol is a security extension of the Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) in IPv6.

Maintaining ND

After configuring IPv6 ND, you can run the display commands to view the related configuration. You can also clear configuration information if necessary.

Configuration Examples for IPv6 Neighbor Discovery

This section provides examples for configuring IPv6 ND and SEND.
