2. Use 'ping'

Unix operating system :

ping6 ipv6.google.com
PING6 (56 = 40 + 8 + 8 bytes) 2001: db8: 100: 603e: e554: e63: 3494 -> 2a00: 1450: 8003 :: 69
16 bytes from 2a00: 1450: 8003 :: 69, icmp_seq = 0 hlim = 55 time = 40,915 ms
16 bytes from 2a00: 1450: 8003 :: 69, icmp_seq = 1 hlim = 55 time = 41.042 ms
16 bytes from 2a00: 1450: 8003 :: 69, icmp_seq = 2 hlim = 55 time = 41.695 ms

3. Use traceroute

Unix operating system:

# traceroute6 ipv6.google.com
traceroute6 to ipv6.l.google.com (2a00: 1450: 8003 :: 69) from 2001: db8: 100: 603e: e554: e63: 3494, 64 hops max, 12 bytes packets
