Description: Huawei MIB covering IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND), including configuration of ND snooping, RA guard, and ND proxy.
Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.
What Is HUAWEI-ND-MIB?
HUAWEI-ND-MIB is a Huawei vendor MIB covering IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND) features on Huawei switches and routers, including ND snooping, RA guard, and ND proxy functionality used to secure and manage IPv6 neighbor discovery on a network. It exposes per-slot and per-interface ND statistics tables that track neighbor discovery protocol activity across the device's line cards and ports. This lets administrators monitor software/protocol health, such as spikes in ND packet counts per slot or interface that could indicate an ND-based attack (e.g., RA spoofing or ND flooding) or a misbehaving IPv6 host. Because it deals with neighbor discovery, it logically depends on standard IPv6 MIB concepts (e.g., IP-MIB, IPV6-MIB) even though no explicit dependency text was given. It is typically deployed in enterprise or carrier IPv6 networks running Huawei switching/routing infrastructure with ND security features enabled. Engineers can download the HUAWEI-ND-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in HUAWEI-ND-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.
Supported Devices
- Huawei switch/router (IPv6 network device)
Monitoring Examples
An operator would poll hwNDStatisticsPerSlotTable and hwNDStatisticsPerIfTable to see neighbor discovery packet counts broken out by chassis slot and by individual interface, watching for abnormal spikes that suggest an ND flood or RA guard violation on a specific port. A sudden jump in per-interface ND statistics on an access port, for instance, could reveal a rogue router advertisement or an ND-based reconnaissance attempt. These two tables are the concrete monitoring points confirmed by the sample objects provided.
What Can Be Monitored
- per-slot ND statistics
- per-interface ND statistics
- ND snooping activity
- RA guard violations
- ND proxy activity
