ping ipv6 interface
Use this command to determine whether another computer is on the network. To use the command, configure the switch for network (in-band) connection. The source and target devices must have the ping utility enabled and running on top of TCP/IP. The switch can be pinged from any IP workstation with which the switch is connected through the default VLAN (VLAN 1), as long as there is a physical path between the switch and the workstation. The terminal interface sends three pings to the target station. Use the interface keyword to ping an interface by using the link-local address or the global IPv6 address of the interface. You can use a loopback, network port, serviceport, tunnel, or physical interface as the source. Use the optional size keyword to specify the size of the ping packet. The ipv6-address is the link local IPv6 address of the device you want to query. Use the outgoing-interface option to specify the outgoing interface for a multicast IP/IPv6 ping.
