Traceroute
You can trace a packet route from the XPort AR to an Internet host, showing how many hops the
packet requires to reach the host, and how long each hop takes. If you visit a web site whose
pages appear slowly, you can use traceroute to determine where the longest delays are occurring.
To use traceroute, perform the following steps.
1. Click Diagnostics > Traceroute. Figure 11-13 shows the page that displays.
