Traceroute

In computing, Traceroute is a computer network diagnostic tool for tracking and displaying possible routes (paths) taken by a packet from a source to a destination on an Internet Protocol (IP) network. Traceroute reports the IP addresses of all the routers pinged in between, and measure the transit delays of packets.

Traceroute works by sending Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packets, and every router involved in transferring the data gets these packets. The ICMP packets provide information about whether the routers used in the transmission are able to effectively transfer the data.

A Traceroute Test is useful for debugging various network problems:
Traceroute is helpful for figuring out the routing path the data has to go through, as well as the response delays as it travels across nodes. Traceroute also enables you to locate where the data was unable to be sent along, known as points of failure.

Ping is a quick and easy utility to tell if the specified server is reachable and how long will it take to send and receive data from the server. Traceroute finds the exact route taken to reach the server and time taken by each hop (Step).

A Traceroute displays the path that the ICMP packet took as it traveled around the Internet to the destination. It also displays the response times that occurred at each stop along the route. If there is a connection problem or latency connecting to the destination, it will show up in these times.

• Open the Online Traceroute Tool
• Enter a domain or an IP address in the space provided (Both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported)
• Click on the "Traceroute" button

The Online Traceroute Tool will then trace the whole path through which network request routes to the provided Domain or IP Address and gives you the traceroute results.

No.Traceroute tools are typically included as a utility by operating systems such as Windows and Unix. If you want to do a Traceroute using your computer, you can run the following Traceroute commands on your preferred terminal. However, doing a Traceroute online is much simpler and of the same accuracy.

For a domain/hostname: traceroute [domain or hostname]
For an IPv4 Address: traceroute [IPv4Address]
For an IPv6 Address: traceroute6 [IPv6Address]

For a domain/hostname: tracert [domain or hostname]
For an IPv4 Address: tracert [IPv4Address]
For an IPv6 Address: tracert -6 [IPv6Address]
