Well, if you have enabled support for secondary addressing, which is
on by default in V6, then the arp table is used as well. See the output
of demand polls and the help for netmon configuration.

I think you're going to find that, like
all other products that do network
discovery, NetView's discovery process
is a trade secret. Translation: even
the developers don't understand it.
I think you can bet ARP is involved though.
