ping ipv6 interface
Use ping ipv6 interface command in the Privileged EXEC mode 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. The source can be a loopback, tunnel, or logical interface.
