Tunnel Interface Commands; Ping Ipv6 Interface - NETGEAR M6100 Series Reference Manual

Use the optional size keyword and datagram-size parameter to specify the size of the
ping packet.
Default The default count is 1.
The default interval is 3 seconds.
The default size is 0 bytes.

ping ipv6 interface

Use this command 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. You can use a loopback, network
port, service port, tunnel, vlan, or physical interface as the source.
The argument unit/slot/port corresponds to a physical routing interface or VLAN
routing interface. The vlan keyword and vland-id parameter are used to specify the VLAN
ID of the routing VLAN directly instead of in the unit/slot/port format. The vlan-id
parameter is a number in the range of 1–4093. Use the optional size keyword and
datagram-size parameter to specify the size of the ping packet.
Format
ping ipv6 interface {unit/slot/port | vlan vland-id | loopback loopback-id |
network | serviceport | tunnel tunnel-id} {link-local-address
link-local-address | ipv6-address} [size datagram-size]

Tunnel Interface Commands

The commands in this section describe how to create, delete, and manage tunnel
interfaces.Several different types of tunnels provide functionality to facilitate the transition of
IPv4 networks to IPv6 networks. These tunnels are divided into two classes: configured and
automatic. The distinction is that configured tunnels are explicitly configured with a
destination or endpoint of the tunnel. Automatic tunnels, in contrast, infer the endpoint of the
tunnel from the destination address of packets routed into the tunnel. To assign an IP
address to the tunnel interface, see
