TPLINK-NDSNOOPING-MIB

Description: Manages TP-Link switch IPv6 Neighbor Discovery snooping binding tables for address security.

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.

TPLINK-NDSNOOPING-MIB is a private TP-Link enterprise MIB that manages IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND) Snooping, a switch security feature that inspects ND protocol messages (Neighbor Solicitation/Advertisement, Router Advertisement) to build a trusted IPv6 address-to-port binding table, analogous to DHCPv6 snooping for IPv6 neighbor discovery. It exposes configuration and binding-table data used to establish trust for downstream features like IPv6 Source Guard. Its monitoring role is software/security-feature status -- confirming ND snooping is enabled on the correct VLANs/ports and that the binding table accurately reflects connected IPv6 hosts -- rather than hardware health. It has a clear functional dependency relationship with TPLINK-IPV6-SOURCE-GUARD-MIB, which consumes the bindings this module builds. It is deployed on TP-Link managed switches in dual-stack or IPv6-enabled access networks as a foundational security control. Engineers can download the TPLINK-NDSNOOPING-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

No sample object names were provided, but based on the module's stated purpose an admin would poll a neighbor discovery snooping binding table to confirm connected IPv6 hosts have valid address-to-port bindings, and check per-port/VLAN ND snooping enable status to ensure the feature is active everywhere IPv6 Source Guard depends on it, since a gap here would silently disable downstream spoofing protection.
