tool to send unsolicited neighbour advertisements?

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

Hello,

probably http://www.remlab.net/ndisc6/
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.
