Functional Notes
The ping ipv6 command can be issued from both the Basic and Enable modes.
The ping ipv6 command helps diagnose basic IPv6 network connectivity using the Packet Internet Groper
program to repeatedly bounce Internet Control Message Protocol version 6 (ICMPv6) ECHO_REQ
packets off a system (using a specified IPv6 address). AOS allows executing a standard ping ipv6 request
to a specified IPv6 address, or provides keywords to configure a more specific ping ipv6 configuration.
60000CRG0-35E
Optional. Specifies an alphanumerical string to use (the ASCII equivalent)
as the data pattern in the ICMPv6 ECHO_REQ packets.
Optional. Includes the destination option in the ICMPv6 ECHO_REQ
packets.
Optional. Includes the hop-by-hop option in the ICMPv6 ECHO_REQ
packets. This typically causes intermediate routers to process switch the
packets, potentially detecting switching issues in these devices.
Optional. Specifies the number of loopback messages to be sent. Range is
1 to 1024.
Optional. Specifies the datagram size (in bytes) of the ping packet. Valid
range is 1 to 1448 bytes.
Optional. Specifies the IPv6 address to use as the source address in the
ICMPv6 ECHO_REQ (or interface) packets. IPv6 addresses should be
expressed in colon hexadecimal format (X:X:X:X::X). For example,
2001:DB8:1::1. Entering the ping ipv6 command using a link-local
destination address prompts the user for an egress interface. The source
IPv6 address must be a valid address local to the router on the specified
VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance.
Optional. Specifies the timeout period after which the ping is considered
unsuccessful. Valid range is 1 to 60 seconds.
Optional. Enables detailed messaging.
Optional. Specifies the VRF where the IPv6 address exists.
Optional. Specifies a minimum time to wait between sending test packets.
Valid range is 100 to 60000 milliseconds.
