Table 92: Traceroute field summary

Field Function
Remote Host Identifies the destination host of the traceroute.
Advanced Options
Don't Resolve Determines whether hostnames of the hops along the
Addresses path are displayed, in addition to IP addresses.
Gateway Specifies the IP address of the gateway to route through.
Source Address Specifies the source address of the outgoing traceroute
packets.
Bypass Routing Determines whether traceroute packets are routed by
means of the routing table. If the routing table is not used,
traceroute packets are sent only to hosts on the interface
specified in the Interface box. If the host is not on that
interface, traceroute responses are not sent.
Interface Specifies the interface on which the traceroute packets
are sent.
Time-to-live Specifies the maximum time-to-live (TTL) hop count for
the traceroute request packet.

the traceroute operation are being displayed.
The switch generates the list of waypoints by sending a series of ICMP traceroute packets
in which the time-to-live (TTL) value in the messages sent to each successive waypoint
is incremented by 1. (The TTL value of the first traceroute packet is set to 1.) In this manner,
each waypoint along the path to the destination host replies with a Time Exceeded packet
from which the source IP address can be obtained.
The results of the traceroute operation are displayed in the main pane. If no options are
specified, each line of the traceroute display is in the following format:
hop-number host (ip-address) [as-number] time1 time2 time3
The switch sends a total of three traceroute packets to each waypoint along the path
and displays the round-trip time for each traceroute operation. If the switch times out
before receiving a
Time Exceeded

message, an asterisk (*) is displayed for that round-trip
Your Action
Type the hostname or IP address of the
destination host.
To suppress the display of the hop
hostnames, select the check box.
Type the gateway IP address.
Type the source IP address.
To bypass the routing table and send the
traceroute packets to hosts on the specified
interface only, select the check box.
From the list, select the interface on which
traceroute packets are sent. If you select any,
the traceroute requests are sent on all
interfaces.
From the list, select the TTL.
