Supported Applications
The following applications have been enhanced to provide IPv6 support.
•
Ping
The
ping
command supports IPv6 addresses. Use the following format to ping
an IPv6 address:
ping <host name>|<IPv6 address> [-n <tries (0-4294967295)>]
[-w <msec delay (0-4294967295)>] [-l <length (0/32-65500/2080)>]
[-s <IP source>] [-v <TOS (0-255)>] [-f] [-t]
To ping a link-local address (begins with
FE80
), provide an interface index, as
follows:
ping <IPv6 address>%<Interface index> [-n <tries (0-4294967295)>]
[-w <msec delay (0-4294967295)>] [-l <length (0/32-65500/2080)>]
[-s <IP source>] [-v <TOS (0-255)>] [-f] [-t]
•
Traceroute
The
traceroute
command supports IPv6 addresses (but not link-local
addresses).
Use the following format to perform a traceroute to an IPv6 address:
traceroute <host name>| <IPv6 address> [<max-hops (1-32)>
[<msec delay (1-4294967295)>]]
•
Telnet server
The
telnet
command supports IPv6 addresses. Use the following format to
Telnet into an IPv6 interface on the switch:
telnet <host name>| <IPv6 address> [<port>]
•
Telnet client
The
telnet
command supports IPv6 addresses, (but not link-local addresses).
Use the following format to Telnet to an IPv6 address:
telnet <host name>| <IPv6 address> [<port>]
•
HTTP/HTTPS
The HTTP/HTTPS servers support both IPv4 and IPv6 connections.
•
SSH
Secure Shell (SSH) connections over IPv6 are supported. The following syntax
is required from the client:
ssh -u <IPv6 address>
Example:
ssh -u 2001:2:3:4:0:0:0:142
•
TFTP
The TFTP commands support both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Link-local
addresses are not supported.
•
