> Ans : actually I must have to ping "::ffff:68c6:b6f7   because this address can not change  , it is conversion of ipv4 address node which is fixed.

::ffff:0:0/96 are special-use IPv6 addresses that should never occur on the wire.

They are used to represent IPv4 addresses when using the dual-stack capable IPv6 socket API, cf. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3493#section-3.7

I have not fully understood what you are trying to do, but it is unlikely to work if it depends on packets with these addresses being routed through a network.
