Configuration
IPv6 Ping The ping ipv6 command is commonly used for testing the reachability of a host.
This command sends an ICMPv6 message to the destination host and records the
time for the response message to be received. For details about the ping
command, refer to
“Basic System Configuration and Debugging” on page 483.

CAUTION: When you use the ping ipv6 command to verify the reachability of the
destination, you must specify the "-i" keyword if the destination address is a
link-local address.
IPv6 Traceroute The traceroute ipv6 command is used to record the route of IPv6 packets from
source to destination, so as to check whether the link is available and determine
the point of failure.
