This thesis is dedicated to network layer protocol IPv6, purposes of its creation and penetration. Former chapters briefly describe IPv6 protocol format and protocols, methods and technologies related to IPv6. The thesis summarizes security risks and flaws in IPv6 and ICMPv6 protocols. In context of the risks and flaws the thesis describes several of local ICMP attacks. It also mentions security incidents resulting from exploiting those security flaws and means of countermeasures. One of the used countermeasures is passive monitoring of ICMP messages. Thesis contains brief description of tool used to achieve this - NDPMon with its advantages, disadvantages and concepts of usage. Rest of the thesis describes design and implementation of monitoring tool similar to NDPMon, but with some improvements.
