Subject: | Pinging IPv6 Addresses |
On most BSD and Linux systems I've tested so far, the standard ping
command cannot do ICMPv6 pings, and therefore can't ping an IPv6
address. On those systems, the 'ping6' command needs to be used instead.
It would be beneficial if Net::Ping::External could automagically do the
"right thing" when given an IPv6 address.
