Find Raspberry Pi in network (looking for MAC address vendor prefix of Raspberry Pi Foundation using nmap, awk for ipv4 / ping6, ip, grep for ipv6 neighbour discovery)
Raw
find-raspberry.sh
sudo nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/24 | awk '/^Nmap/{ip=$NF}/B8:27:EB/{print ip}'
Raw
find-raspberry6.sh
IFACE=eth0
# trigger IPv6 neighbour discovery with link-local scope multicast:
ping6 -c2 -I $IFACE ff02::1 > /dev/null
# print the results, filtered by MAC address vendor prefix of Raspberry Pi Foundation:
ip -6 neigh | grep b8:27:eb

Thanks. It was very useful. I've done some small changes to recursively search until the user breaks the loop:

echo "************************"
echo "Prees [Ctrl + C] to exit"
echo "************************"
IFACE=wlan0
#IFACE=eth0
# trigger IPv6 neighbour discovery with link-local scope multicast:
ping6 -c2 -I $IFACE ff02::1 > /dev/null
# print the results, filtered by MAC address vendor prefix of Raspberry Pi Foundation:
while :
do
        ip -6 neigh | grep b8:27:eb
        sleep 30
done
