URGENT: iperf does not work to run TCP traffic using IPV6 IP. Same work with IPV4 IP.
Hi,
I am using iperf version 2.0.5 and I am not able to run the traffic it displays error invalid argument. Please find the below log. ping6 <ipv6 ip> doesnot ping instead I need to give ping6 -I <interface> <ipv6 ip> then it ping. Please find the below log and provide me the immediate solution for the same
