How to display the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Table in Windows

To display the Neighbor Discovery Table (ND Table) in Windows enter the following into the command prompt:

> netsh interface ipv6 show neighbors

On your local machine, windows maps IPv6 addresses to physical addresses (MAC addresses) in the Neighbor Discovery Table. This is similar to the Address Resolution Protocol cache (ARP cache) which maps IPv4 addresses to physical addresses.

Here we used netsh, a command-line utility that enables you to access and modify your local machine’s networking configurations, to access the Neighbor Discovery Table. Below is a sample output from netsh which identifies the IPv6 address and physical address of the router.

> netsh interface ipv6 show neighbors
Interface 16: Wi-Fi
