  Description     : IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol Monitor

NDPMon, Neighbor Discovery Protocol Monitor, is a tool working with ICMPv6
packets. NDPMon observes the local network to see if nodes using neighbor
discovery messages behave properly. When it detects a suspicious Neighbor
Discovery message, it notifies the administrator by writing in the syslog and
in some cases by sending an email report.

[It looks like it was mentioned on debian-ipv6 around 2006, but never got
packaged.
Is there something already in the archive which is able to do this kind of
monitoring? If not, someone should really take care of having it packaged and
uploaded]
