Ping Ipv6 Interface - NETGEAR GSM7228PS Cli Manual

You can utilize the ping or traceroute facilities over the service/network ports when using an IPv6
global address <ipv6-global-address|hostname>. Any IPv6 global address or gateway
assignments to these interfaces will cause IPv6 routes to be installed within the IP stack such that
the ping or traceroute request is routed out the service/network port properly. When referencing an
IPv6 link-local address, you must also specify the service or network port interface by using the
serviceport or network parameter.
Default • The default count is 1.
• The default interval is 3 seconds.
• The default size is 0 bytes.
Format
ping ipv6 {ipv6-global-address|hostname} [size <datagram-size>]}
Mode • Privileged EXEC
• User Exec

ping ipv6 interface

Use this command to determine whether another computer is on the network. To use the
command, configure the switch for network (in-band) connection. The source and target devices
must have the ping utility enabled and running on top of TCP/IP. The switch can be pinged from
any IP workstation with which the switch is connected through the default VLAN (VLAN 1), as
long as there is a physical path between the switch and the workstation. The terminal interface
sends three pings to the target station. Use the interface keyword to ping an interface by using
the link-local address or the global IPv6 address of the interface. You can use a loopback, network
port, serviceport, tunnel, or physical interface as the source. Use the optional size keyword to
specify the size of the ping packet. The <ipv6-address> is the link local IPv6 address of the
device you want to query.
Format
ping ipv6 interface {<unit/slot/port> | loopback <loopback-id>
|network |tunnel <tunnel-id>} <link-local-address>} [size <datagram-
size>]
