After specifying the target IPv6 address to ping, the other parameters can be entered in
any order. Use the ? after each specified subcommand for a valid list of arguments and

Syntax Description
<interface>
<ipv6 address>
60000CRG0-35E
Specifies the egress interface when pinging an IPv6 link-local address (any
address that has the prefix FE80::/64). Interfaces are specified in the
<interface type> <slot/port | interface id> format. For example, for an
Ethernet interface, use eth 0/1. Type ping ipv6 <ipv6 address> ? to display
a list of valid interfaces. This variable is mandatory when pinging a link-local
address. This variable is ignored when using a non-link-local address.
Specifies the IPv6 address of the system to ping. 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.
