My Ping result are returning an IPv6 instead of IPv4
Solution 1:
To ping using IPv4, simply use the -4
option, e.g.
ping -4 google.com
The -4
option is used for many command line tools to force use of IPv4. To force use of IPv6, -6
can be used.
As you can see, I get IPv6 address. I expected I'll get IPv4.
I've yet to come across any pure IPv6 deployments in the wild. Almost all IPv6 deployments are dual stack with IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity.
