UnityEngine.Ping does not work with ipv6 addresses

Networking

-

To Reproduce:

1. Open scene "Ping Test" in the attached project.
You need to be on an ipv6 network to test this ( can use if you're testing on ios/have a mac: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/NetworkingInternetWeb/Conceptual/NetworkingOverview/UnderstandingandPreparingfortheIPv6Transition/UnderstandingandPreparingfortheIPv6Transition.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40010220-CH213-SW1)

2. Run it and click on the "ping ipv6 address", observe that it fails with Ping.time = -1
(the address has ipv6 prefix https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6052, and can be pinged with ping6 util)

Tested on iOS and OSX

    This is still not fixed in 5.4.0f3 even though this post suggests so. Please re-open.

    Yup, I'm not sure how 5.3.5 is fully IPv6 ready without the Ping class?

    I have the same issue with Unity 5.3.5 even though it’s supposed to fully support IPv6.

    Is there any update with this issue?
