[<msec delay>]]
Where IP address is the hostname or IP address of the target station,
max-hops (optional) is the maximum distance to trace (1-16 devices), and
delay (optional) is the number of milliseconds for wait for the response.
As with ping, the DNS parameters must be configured if specifying
hostnames.
