Traceroute

This section describes the Traceroute feature.

Use Traceroute to discover the routes that packets take when traveling on a hop-by-hop basis to
their destination through the network.

Maps network routes by sending packets with small Time-to-Live (TTL) values and watches
the ICMP time-out announcements

Command displays all L3 devices

Can be used to detect issues on the network

Tracks up to 20 hops

Default UPD port used 33343 unless modified in the traceroute command

Note: You can execute Traceroute with CLI commands only—there is no Web

interface for this feature.
