Hi, Nowadays, I'm looking through IPv6 supportable commands in Toybox. And I found that some commands are works totally different with ipv4. Today I gonna talk about arp and arping.
IPv4 arp and arping use broadcasting for discovering network. But IPv6 doesn't support broadcasting, and use neighbor discovery instead of ICMP and ARP. http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1453/ipv6-ref-34.html#scrolltoc So, these commands are cannot be implemented with additional options. In my opinion, toybox needs new command, ndp. https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?format=html&query=ndp(8) Do you have any plan for ndp? And Could you share your opinion for Ipv6 support?
