Ping Ipv6 - NETGEAR GS748T Software Administration Manual

Ping IPv6

Use the Ping IPv6 page to send a Ping request to a specified Hostname or IPv6 address. You
can use this to check whether the switch can communicate with a particular IPv6 station.
When you click the Apply button, the switch will send three pings and the results will be
displayed below the configurable data.
To access the Ping IPv6 page, click Maintenance
To configure the settings and ping a host on the network:
1. In the Ping field, select either Global or Link Global to select either the global IPv6
Address/Hostname or Link Local Address to ping.
2. In the Hostname/IP Address field, specify the IP address or the hostname of the station
you want the switch to ping. The initial value is blank. This information is not retained across

ping. The initial value is blank. The Link Local Address you enter is not retained
across a power cycle.
