Parameter Description
vrf-name The name of the VRF instance from which to initiate
traceroute. Only hosts reachable from within the
VRF instance can be tracerouted. If a source
parameter is specified in conjunction with a vrf
parameter, it must be a member of the VRF. The
ipv6 parameter cannot be used in conjunction with
the vrf parameter.
ipaddress The
ipaddress value should be a valid IP address.
ipv6-address The
ipv6-address value should be a valid IPv6
address.
hostname The
hostname
value should be a valid hostname.
ipv6 The optional
ipv6 keyword can be used before
ipv6-address or hostname. Giving the ipv6
keyword before the
hostname tries it to resolve to
an IPv6 address.
