thcping6(8)

🌈 NAME 🌈

thcping6(8) — bestie, meet thcping6, the IPv6 packet-crafting icon. That's the name, and yes it's giving main-character energy. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's the exact lineup, no edits, no vibes-based rewriting:

thcping6 [-EafqxO] [-e ethertype] [-H t:l:v] [-D t:l:v] [-F dst] [-e
ethertype] [-L length] [-N nextheader] [-V version] [-t ttl] [-c class]
[-l label] [-d size] [-S port|-U port|-T type -C code] interface src6
dst6 [srcmac [dstmac [data]]]

🛠️ OPTIONS 🛠️

bestie, here's the documented option menu:

• -T number — ICMPv6 type to send (default: 128 = ping). 🏓
• -C number — ICMPv6 code to send (default: 0). 🔢
• -S port — use a TCP SYN packet on the defined port instead of ping. 🐬
• -U port — use a UDP packet on the defined port instead of ping. 🛰️
• -n count — how often to send the packet (default: 1). 🔁
• -h — show more command line options (help!). 🆘

You can put an "x" into src6, srcmac and dstmac for an automatic value. 🙈

It crafts a ICMPv6/TCP/UDP packet with special IPv6 or EH header options. It returns -1 on error or no reply, 0 on normal reply or 1 on error reply. 🔥
