Pinging over IPv6
Pinging over IPv6
To ping a remote host over IPv6, issue the command ping6. The remote host must
also be configured with an IPv6 address of global scope and must be in the same subnet
as the Broadmore.
Pinging an IPv6 Host
The following example shows a ping6 operation to a host with an IPv6 address
3ffe:0:0:13::4. The subnet in this case is 3ffe:0:0:13::x.
Broadmore->ping6 -c 1 3ffe:0:0:13::4
PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) 3ffe:0:0:13::4
16 bytes from 3ffe:0:0:13::4, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64
--- ping6 statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss

1008 bytes from ::1, icmp_seq=1 hlim=64
