Hi,
We're transitioning stuff to IPv6 and I've been trying (without much
luck) to find a standard tool for sending out unsolicited neighbour
advertisements for failover purposes.
Is there such a thing? In ipv4 arping works fine.
Thanks,
Chris

The ndisc6 tool appears to do neighbour discovery, but doesn't have any
options that I could see to send unsolicited neighbour advertisements.
There are various blackhat-type tools to do this, but I haven't been
able to find a real ipv6 replacement for arping.
