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 a given 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., a deployment in which all interfaces have
   IPv6 addresses and all nexthops are IPv6 nexthops, even for IPv4
   routes).
