•The data <1 - 4 byte hex> parameter lets you specify a specific data pattern for the payload instead of the default data pattern, "abcd", in the packet's data payload. The pattern repeats itself throughout the ICMP message (payload) portion of the packet.

NOTE

For parameters that require a numeric value, the CLI does not check that the value you enter is within the allowed range. Instead, if you do exceed the range for a numeric value, the software rounds the value to the nearest valid value.

•The brief keyword causes ping test characters to be displayed. The following ping test characters are supported.

! Indicates that a reply was received.

. Indicates that the network server timed out while waiting for a reply. U Indicates that a destination unreachable error PDU was received.

I Indicates that the user interrupted ping.

Configuring an IPv6 Syslog server

To enable IPv6 logging, specify an IPv6 Syslog server. Enter a command such as the following.

Brocade(config)#log host ipv6 2001:DB8:e0bb::4/128

Syntax: log host ipv6 <ipv6-address> [<udp-port-num>]

The <ipv6-address>must be in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.

The <udp-port-num>optional parameter specifies the UDP application port used for the Syslog facility.

Viewing IPv6 SNMP server addresses

Some of the show commands display IPv6 addresses for IPv6 SNMP servers. The following shows an example output for the show snmp server command.
