2.2.1 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
System Maintenance and Debugging.
After you execute the ping ipv6 command, you can press Ctrl+C to terminate the ping
operation.
