Traceroute

72 Cisco Small Business 200, 300 and 500 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide (Internal Version)

• IP Version—If the host is identified by its IP address, select either IPv4 or

IPv6 to indicate that it will be entered in the selected format.

• Source IP—Select the source interface whose IPv4 address will be used as

the source IPv4 address for communication messages. If the Host Definition

field was By Name, all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses will be displayed in this

drop-down field. If the Host Definition field was By IP Address, only the

existing IP addresses of the type specified in the IP Version field will be

displayed.

NOTE If the Auto option is selected, the system computes the source

address based on the destination address.

• Destination IPv6 Address Type—Select Link Local or Global as the type of

IPv6 address to enter.

- Link Local—The IPv6 address uniquely identifies hosts on a single

network link. A link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not routable, and

can be used for communication only on the local network. Only one link

local address is supported. If a link local address exists on the interface,

this entry replaces the address in the configuration.

- Global—The IPv6 address is a global Unicast IPV6 type that is visible and

reachable from other networks.

• Link Local Interface—If the IPv6 address type is Link Local, select from

where it is received.

• Host IP Address/Name—Enter the host address or name.

• TTL—Enter the maximum number of hops that Traceroute permits. This is

used to prevent a case where the sent frame gets into an endless loop. The

Traceroute command terminates when the destination is reached or when

this value is reached. To use the default value (30), select Use Default.

• Timeout—Enter the length of time that the system waits for a frame to return

before declaring it lost, or select Use Default.

STEP 3 Click Activate Traceroute. The operation is performed.

A page appears showing the Round Trip Time (RTT) and status for each trip in the

fields:

• Index—Displays the number of the hop.

• Host—Displays a stop along the route to the destination.
