traceroute
Finds the path taken by an IP packet from the local switch to a specified destination. This command
displays the individual hops to the destination as well as some timing information.
traceroute {ip_address | hostname} [max-hop max_hop_count]
Syntax Definitions
ip_address IP address of the host whose route you want to trace.
hostname DNS name of the host whose route you want to trace.
max_hop_value Maximum hop count for the trace.
Defaults

Platforms Supported

Usage Guidelines
• When using this command, you must enter the name of the destination as part of the command line
(either the IP address or host name).
• Use the optional max-hop parameter to set a maximum hop count to the destination. If the trace
reaches this maximum hop count without reaching the destination, the trace stops.
