# Net::Frame::Layer::ICMPv6::Echo(3pm)

ICMPv6 Echo type object

## NAME

Net::Frame::Layer::ICMPv6::Echo - ICMPv6 Echo type object

## SYNOPSIS

```
   use Net::Frame::Layer::ICMPv6::Echo;
   my $layer = Net::Frame::Layer::ICMPv6::Echo->new(
      identifier     => getRandom16bitsInt(),
      sequenceNumber => getRandom16bitsInt(),
      payload        => '',
   );
   $layer->pack;
   print 'RAW: '.$layer->dump."\n";
   # Read a raw layer
   my $layer = Net::Frame::Layer::ICMPv6::Echo->new(raw => $raw);
   print $layer->print."\n";
   print 'PAYLOAD: '.unpack('H*', $layer->payload)."\n"
      if $layer->payload;
```

## DESCRIPTION

This modules implements the encoding and decoding of the ICMPv6 Echo object.

See also **Net::Frame::Layer** for other attributes and methods.

## ATTRIBUTES
