What is ipv6IfIcmpInNeighborSolicits?

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.56.1.1.1.12
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-ICMP-MIB::ipv6IfIcmpInNeighborSolicits

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.56.1.1.1.12.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IPV6-ICMP-MIB::ipv6IfIcmpInNeighborSolicits.1
