networks. This feature is not available in the basic configuration and
should be ordered additionally. The utility sends sequence of datagramms
to a specified network host, and registers data about all intermediate
routers that sent datagramms passed through during transmission. Thus,
Traceroute utility allows the diagnostics of all intermediate network
equipment on a data transmission path.
