ping ipv6
Use this command to determine whether another computer is on the network. Ping provides a synchronous
response when initiated from the CLI and Web interfaces. 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. Use the
ipv6-address|hostname parameter to ping
an interface by using the global IPv6 address of the interface. The argument
unit/slot/port corresponds to a
physical routing interface or VLAN routing interface. The keyword vlan is used to specify the VLAN ID of the
routing VLAN directly instead of a unit/slot/port format. Use the optional
size keyword to specify the size of
the ping packet.
You can utilize the ping or traceroute facilities over the service/network ports when using an IPv6 global
address
ipv6-global-address|hostname. Any IPv6 global address or gateway assignments to these interfaces
will cause IPv6 routes to be installed within the IP stack such that the ping or traceroute request is routed out
the service/network port properly. When referencing an IPv6 link-local address, you must also specify the
service or network port interface by using the
serviceport or network parameter.
Using the options described below, you can specify the number and size of Echo Requests and the interval
between Echo Requests. You can also specify the interface to ping and the source interface from which the ping
should originate.
Default • The default count is 1.
• The default interval is 3 seconds.
• The default size is 0 bytes.
