Traceroute for IPv6

Syntax: traceroute6 < ipv6-address hostname >

[minttl < 1-255 > [maxttl < 1-255 > [timeout < 1 - 60 >] [probes < 1-5 >]

traceroute6 <link-local-address%vlan<vid> hostname >

[minttl < 1-255 >] [maxttl < 1-255 >] [timeout < 1 - 60 >] [probes < 1-5 >]

Displays the IPv6 address of each hop in the route to the specified destination host device with the time (in microseconds) required for a packet reply to be received from each next-hop device.

<ipv6-address>:IPv6 address of a destination host device.

<link-local-address>%vlan<vlan-id>:IPv6 link-local address, where %vlan<vlan-id>specifies the VLAN ID number.

<hostname>: Host name of an IPv6 host device configured on an IPv6 DNS server.

minttl: Minimum number of hops allowed for each probe

packet sent along the route. Default: 1; Range: 1 - 255.

•If the minttl value is greater than the actual number of hops, the traceroute output displays only the hops equal to or greater than the configured minttl threshold value. The hops below the threshold value are not displayed.

•If the minttl value is the same as the actual number of hops, only the final hop is displayed in the command output.

•If the minttl value is less than the actual number of hops, all hops to the destination host are displayed.

maxttl: Maximum number of hops allowed for each probe

packet sent along the route. Valid values: 1 - 255. Default: 30.

•If the maxttl value is less than the actual number of hops required to reach the host, the traceroute output displays only the IPv6 addresses of the hops detected by the configured maxttl value.

timeout: Number of seconds within which a response is required from the IPv6 device at each hop in the route to the destination host before the traceroute operation times out. Default: 5 seconds; Range: 1 - 60.

probes: Number of times a traceroute is performed to locate the IPv6 device at any hop in the route to the specified host before the operation times out. Default: 3; Range: 1 - 5.
