4.15.2 IPv6 Ping
This Page allows you to issue ICMPv6 PING packets to troubleshoot IPv6 connectivity issues.
After you press “Start”, 5 ICMPv6 packets are transmitted, and the sequence number and roundtrip time are displayed upon
reception of a reply. The Page refreshes automatically until responses to all packets are received, or until a timeout occurs. The
ICMPv6 Ping screen in Figure 4-15-2 appears.

The Page includes the following fields:
Object Description

IP Address The destination IP Address.
 Ping Length The payload size of the ICMP packet. Values range from 2 bytes to 1452 bytes.
 Egress Interface The VLAN ID (VID) of the specific egress IPv6 interface which ICMP packet
goes. The given VID ranges from 1 to 4094 and will be effective only when the
corresponding IPv6 interface is valid. When the egress interface is not given,
PING6 finds the best match interface for destination.
Do not specify egress interface for loopback address.
Do specify egress interface for link-local or multicast address.
