Finds the path taken by an IPv6 packet from the local switch to a specified destination. This command
displays the individual hops to the destination as well as some timing information.

Usage Guidelines
•
When using this command, you must enter the name of the destination as part of the command line
(either the IPv6 address or hostname).
•
Use the optional max-hop parameter to set a maximum hop count to the destination. If the trace
reaches this maximum hop count without reaching the destination, the trace stops.

OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide
Destination IPv6 address. IPv6 address of the host whose route you
want to trace.
DNS name of the host whose route you want to trace.
If the target is a link-local address, the name of the interface used to
reach it.
Maximum hop count for the trace.
Specific UDP port destination. By default, the destination port is chosen
by traceroute6.
The initial size for the probe packets. During the trace the packet size
will be adjusted downward as path MTU information is received. The
default and maximum value is 24,000 bytes with a minimum of 1,280
bytes.
Specify whether each hop should be shown as an IPv6 address or the
host name corresponding to the address.
Number of probes to be sent to a single hop.
