Usage Guidelines Traceroute is a widely available utility on most operating systems. Much like ping, it is a valuable tool
for determining connectivity in a network. Ping allows the user to find out if there is a connection
between two end systems. Traceroute does this as well, but also lists the intermediate routers between
the two systems. Users can therefore see the possible routes packets can take from one system to another.
Use traceroute to find the route to a remote host, when either the hostname or the IP address is known.
Examples The following example traces the route between the WAAS device and a device with an IP address of
10.0.0.0:
WAE# traceroute 10.0.0.0
traceroute to 10.0.0.0 (10.0.0.0), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets
