Description: Manages TP-Link switch IPv6 Neighbor Discovery detection to identify and filter invalid ND messages.
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 TPLINK-NDDETECTION-MIB?
TPLINK-NDDETECTION-MIB is a TP-Link proprietary module for their managed switches that configures IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND) detection, a security feature that inspects ND protocol messages to identify and filter invalid or spoofed Neighbor Advertisement/Solicitation traffic. Its data is primarily security/configuration oriented, covering enable/disable state of ND detection and related filtering parameters rather than general performance counters. In monitoring terms it supports verifying that IPv6 ND inspection is active and correctly configured, helping detect potential IPv6 neighbor spoofing or DoS conditions on the LAN, though it does not expose classic hardware health data like temperature or CPU load. It depends conceptually on the IETF IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol (RFC 4861) which it polices at the switch level. It is typically deployed on TP-Link enterprise or SMB switches in networks running dual-stack or IPv6 where administrators want protection against ND-based attacks. Engineers can download the TPLINK-NDDETECTION-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in TPLINK-NDDETECTION-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
- TP-Link managed switch
Monitoring Examples
No sample objects were provided for this module, so specific object or table names cannot be confirmed from the source; typical usage would involve polling a global or per-VLAN ND-detection enable status object to confirm the feature is active, and any associated violation/log counters to detect blocked invalid ND packets, which would indicate an attempted IPv6 neighbor spoofing attack on the switch.
What Can Be Monitored
- ND detection enable status
- invalid ND message filtering
- IPv6 neighbor discovery security state
