Hi,
Since recently we noticed  "Neighbour table overflow" warnings from
the kernel on a lot of Linux machines. As this was very annoying for
us and our customers I started to dump traffic and tried to find the
cause.
sounds for me as an typicall IPv6 DoS attack. (see RFC3756)

Sheng Jiang has discussed this issue in his draft:
