3.2 HGMP Features Supported by the S5700
This part describes the HGMP features supported by the S5700.
NDP
In HGMP, Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) packets are used to collect information about
the directly connected neighbors, including the device model, software version, hardware
version, connection interface, member number, private IP address used for communication
within a cluster, and hardware platform.
NOTE
Any device that supports HGMP does not forward NDP packets.
An NDP table is created to store information about neighbors.
