Switch Management Commands 2261
Examples
The following example discovers the routes that packets will actually take
when traveling to the destination specified in the command.
(console) # traceroute 10.240.10.115 init-ttl 1 max-ttl 4 max-fail 0 interval
1 count 3 port 33434 size 43
Traceroute to 10.240.10.115, 4 hops max, 43 byte packets:
1 10.240.4.1 708 msec 41 msec 11 msec
2 10.240.10.115 0 msec 0 msec 0 msec
Hop Count = 1 Last TTL = 2 Test attempt = 6 Test Success = 6
traceroute ipv6
Use the traceroute command in Privileged EXEC mode to discover the IP
routes that packets actually take when traveling to their destinations.
Syntax
traceroute ipv6 ipv6address | hostname [ initTtl initTtl ] [ maxTtl maxTtl ] [
maxFail
maxFail ] [ interval interval ] [ count count ] [ port port ] [ size size
][source {
src-ip-address |vlan vlan-id |loopback loopback-id }]
• ipv6address — Valid IPv6 address of the destination host.
• hostname — Hostname of the destination host. (Range: 1–158 characters). The
command allows spaces in the host name when specified in double quotes. For
example,
console(config)#snmp-server host "host name"
• initTtl — The initial time-to-live (TTL); the maximum number of router hops
between the local and remote system (Range: 0–255). the default is 1.
• maxTtl — The largest TTL value that can be used (Range:1–255). The default is
30. This must be larger or equal to the value specified in initTtl.
• maxFail — Terminate the traceroute after failing to receive a response for this
number of consecutive probes (Range: 0–255).
• interval — The timeout period. If a response is not received within this period of
time, then traceroute considers that probe a failure (printing *) and sends the
next probe. If traceroute does receive a response to a probe, then it sends the
next probe immediately. (Range: 1–60 seconds). The default is 3.
• count — The number of probes to be sent at each TTL level (Range:1–10).
