interrupt a request earlier. The statistics are tabulated after the ping is interrupted or stops.
ping
You use the variable to ping an IPv6 host by generating an ICMPv6 echo request message and
ipv6
sending the message to the specified address. If you are contacting an IPv6 link local address, you must
specify the VLAN you are sending the message from, as shown in the following example (you must
include the % sign):
ping <ipv6> <link-local address> %<vlan_name> <host>

Traceroute

The command enables you to trace the routed path between the switch and a destination

endstation. The

Description
Specifies an end size for packets to be sent.
Specifies that the ping request should use UDP instead of ICMP.
Sets the IP to not fragment the bit.
Sets the TTL value.
Sets the TOS value.
Sets the time interval between sending out ping requests.
Specifies the virtual router name to use for sending out the echo message. If not
specified, VR-Default is used.
NOTE: The BlackDiamond 8800 family of switches and the Summit X450 switch
does not support user-created VRs.
Specifies IPv4 transport.
Specifies IPv6 transport.
NOTE: If you are contacting an IPv6 link local address, you must specify the VLAN
you sending the message from: ping <ipv6> <link-local address>
%<vlan_name> <host>.
Specifies a host name or IP address (either v4 or v6).
Uses the specified source address. If not specified, the address of the transmitting
interface is used.
Sets the traceroute information.
