Traceroute - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850-48 Cli Reference Manual

IP Commands

traceroute

Finds the path taken by an IP packet from the local switch to a specified destination. This command is
used to discover the paths that packets take to a remote destination, as well as where routing breaks down.
traceroute {ip_address | hostname} [source-interface ip_interface] [min-hop min_hop_count]

Usage Guidelines
•
When using this command, enter the name of the destination as part of the command line (either the IP
address or host name).
•
When specifying the source-interface, specify either the name of any operational interface or
Loopback0 interface. The IP address of the source interface must be reachable from the destination.
•
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.
•
The command is VRF aware and is available only from CLI. It does not support IPv6.

IP address of the host whose route you want to trace.
DNS name of the host whose route you want to trace.
IP interface name of the source interface.
Minimum hop count for the first traceroute packet. The value must be
greater than 0 and less than the max hop count.
Maximum hop count for the destination address. The range is between 1
and the maximum integer value (4294967295).
The number of probes to be sent at each TTL level hop-count. The
range is between 1 and the maximum integer value (4294967295).
The period in seconds to wait for the response of each probe packet.
The destination port number used for probing packets. The value must
be greater than 1024.This value is incremented by one in each probe.
The valid range is between 1024 and 65535.
