HPE FlexFabric 5930 Series Network Management And Monitoring Command Reference page 15

-v: Displays detailed information (including the dst field and the idx field) about ICMPv6 echo replies.
If this keyword is not specified, the system only displays brief information (not including the dst field
and the idx field) about ICMPv6 echo replies.
-vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies the MPLS L3VPN instance to which the destination
belongs, where the vpn-instance-name argument is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters. If
the destination is on the public network, do not specify this option.
host: Specifies the IPv6 address or host name of the destination. The host name is a
case-insensitive string of 1 to 253 characters, which can contain letters, digits, and special
characters such as hyphen (-), underscore (_), and dot (.).
Usage guidelines
To use the name of the destination host to perform the ipv6 ping operation, you must first configure
DNS on the device. Otherwise, the ipv6 ping operation fails.
To abort the ping ipv6 operation during the execution of the command, press Ctrl+C.
Examples
# Test whether the IPv6 address (2001::2) is reachable.
<Sysname> ping ipv6 2001::2
Ping6(56 data bytes) 2001::1 --> 2001::2, press CTRL_C to break

The output shows that:
•
The destination is reachable, and ICMPv6 echo requests are replied.
