Hello, I am new to node-red. And new to this forum too! In the links please replace "-" with "." :slight_smile: For learning purposes I want to try ping a target and show the result on an dashboard :slight_smile: I use "node-red-node-ping" and hoped to get the Roundtriptime in ms as msg.payload. …

@dceejay , yes I tried IPV6 also and for better reading. I edited the original Forumstext. @edje, Colin11: ping -6 force the usage of ipv6 but in my environment it is not necessary cause my host use ipv6 as default. ping -6 does work correct :slight_smile:

Which version of node-red, nodejs and node-red-node-ping are you using? node -v to get nodejs version. It is working ok for me on Ubuntu, specifying my own ipv6 local address.

Node-RED version: v2.1.3 Node.js version: v16.13.0 Windows_NT 10.0.19042 x64 LE node-red-node-ping 0.3.1 Everything installed on Monday (this week).

Hello ghayne, my Desktop is a Windows 10 with IPv6 as default.

[grafik] Yes, it looks as your screenshot :slight_smile:

Just a thought :slight_smile: [edit - I missed that you had done it successfully from the command line!]
