OSI layer of Neighbor Discovery Protocol
2
NDP operates using ICMPv6 and, even though ICMPv6 messages are encapsulated in payload field of IPv6 datagram, ICMPv6 and ICMP are usually considered as network layer protocols. At least, on Wikipedia they are network layer protocols. So I thought that NDP, thus, is also network layer protocol. However, on Wikipedia it is directly stated that it is a link layer protocol: The Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP, ND)[1] is a protocol in the Internet protocol suite used with Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6). It operates at the Link Layer of the Internet model (RFC 1122), and is responsible for gathering various information required for internet communication, including the configuration of local connections and the domain name servers and gateways used to communicate with more distant systems.
