ping ipv6
Use this command to determine whether a computer with an IPv6 address or a host name that
resolves to an IPv6 address is on the network. Ping provides a synchronous response when
initiated from the CLI and web interfaces.
Using the options described below, you can specify the number and size of echo requests, the
inter
val between echo requests, and the source.
Defaults • The default count is 1.
• The default interval is 3 seconds.
• The default size is 0 bytes.
F
ormat ping ipv6 {<ipv6-address> | <hostname>} [count <count>] [interval
<interval>] [size <datagram-size>] [source {<ipv6-address> |
<unit/slot/port> | vlan <vlan-id> | network}]
Modes Privileged EXEC
Parameter Description
count Use the count parame
ter to specify the number of ping packets (ICMPv6 echo requests)
that are sent to the destination address specified by the ipv6-address field. The range for
count is 1–15 requests.
interval Use the interval par
ame
ter to specify the time between echo requests, in seconds. Range
is 1–60 seconds.
