CLI Commands
Traceroute Command
traceroute
address> Displays the route (each hop) that a data packet takes from its source to a specified destination on the network and the time in milliseconds to reach each hop and return. Traceroute utilizes ICMP to monitor network messages and UDP to send out the packet. The command also can be implemented from an SNMP station. Router DNS services are always used to resolve names and/or verify addresses in dot notation. An address of zero indicates there was no response from that hop. The traceroute command has the following parameters: maxhops port retries size timeout Command Type Command Name Traceroute traceroute Delete delete traceroute row List list traceroute list traceroute row hops Show show traceroute show traceroute settings show traceroute row settings Set set traceroute maximum_rows
