Abstract:

   RFC5837 describes a mechanism for Extending ICMP for Interface and
   Next-Hop Identification, which allows providing additional
   information in an ICMP error that helps identify interfaces
   participating in the path.  This is especially useful in environments
   where each interface may not have a unique IP address to respond to,
   e.g., a traceroute.

   This document introduces a similar ICMP extension for Node
   Identification.  It allows providing a unique IP address and/or a
   textual name for the node, in the case where each node may not have a
   unique IP address (e.g., the IPv6 nexthop deployment case described
   in draft-chroboczek-intarea-v4-via-v6).
