Abstract: Resource limitations and cost constraints associated with small-embedded devices make it difficult to implement the entire IPv6 specification. And therefore, the simplification of functionality of protocols as well as the cutting of protocols plays an important role in the implementation. The backgrounds of ICMPv6 and NDP as well as the definitions and features of the small-embedded devices were introduced at first.Then some suggestions of simplified implementation of ICMPv6 and NDP for small-embedded devices were given. The implementation and tests of the protocol were described,and results of the tests were given at last.

Key words: ICMPv6, NDP(Neighbor Discovery Protocol), small-embedded devices

摘要： 在介绍了ICMPv6、邻居发现协议(NDP)以及小设备的定义和特点之后,详细地给出了ICMPv6与邻居发现协议在小设备上实现的简化建议,介绍了协议的实现及测试,并给出了实验的测试结果。
