6.4 Traceroute
Provides a standard ICMP or UDP traceroute function that runs three concurrent traceroute processes
and reports every router “hop” along the path, up to 30 hops. The results provide a topological view of the
route that packets are using to reach the destination.
The request is sent via the active interface and requires that routable IP information is assigned to that
interface. For more information, see IP Network Setup on page 6-1.

6.4.2 Results - Traceroute test
The unit reports the IP address of each sequential hop along the path to the target, along with the
roundtrip time required for each hop to receive the probe packet and the unit to receive acknowledgment.
Because three independent traceroute processes are run, three topology sets are presented. An asterisk
appears if a time cannot be determined, such as a response timeout when a router cannot or will not
return a response.
