Definition of Managed Objects for the Neighborhood Discovery Protocol

Overview

RFC 7939, “Definition of Managed Objects for the Neighborhood Discovery Protocol”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2016 by U. Herberg, R. Cole, I. Chakeres, T. Clausen. It obsoletes RFC 6779. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

This document replaces RFC 6779; it contains revisions and extensions to the original document. It defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes objects for configuring parameters of the Neighborhood Discovery Protocol (NHDP) process on a router. The extensions described in this document add objects and values to support the NHDP optimization specified in RFC 7466. The MIB module defined in this document, denoted NHDP-MIB, also reports state, performance information, and notifications about NHDP. This additional state and performance information is useful to troubleshoot problems and performance issues during neighbor discovery.
