Hi,

I've started implementing DAT for IPv6 and I have a few questions regarding the design. I've already implemented a snooping mechanism for Network Solicitation package,

I forgot to ask here: packets generated by the IPv6 the Neigh Discovery Protocol are sent on a periodic basis, right? so what is the idea behind the snooping mechanism? There is not a request (like for ARP), right? So when should the data in distributed table be used?

Cheers,
