RACEROUTE
The
traceroute
command enables you to trace the routed path between the switch and
a destination endstation. The
traceroute
command syntax is
traceroute [<ip_address> | <hostname>] {from <src_ipaddress>} {ttl
<TTL>} {port <port>}
where:
•
ip_address
is the IP address of the destination endstation.
•
hostname
is the hostname of the destination endstation. To use the hostname, you
must first configure DNS.
•
from
uses the specified source address in the ICMP packet. If not specified, the
address of the transmitting interface is used.
•
ttl
configures the switch to trace up to the time-to-live number of the switch.
•
port
uses the specified UDP port number.
