Abstract

IPv6 nodes use the Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol to discover other nodes on the link, to determine each other's link-layer addresses, to find routers and to maintain reachability information about the paths to active neighbors. If not secured, ND protocol is vulnerable to various attacks. This document specifies security mechanisms for ND. Contrary to the original ND specifications, these mechanisms do not make use of IPsec. The purpose of this draft is to present an alternative to the current approach in the Working Group.
