Description
The DNS-resolvable hostname or IPv6 address of the system to
attempt to reach.
IPv6 TraceRoute works by sending UDP packets with increasing
Time-To-Live (TTL) values. Specify the number of probes sent with
each TTL.
The maximum Time-To-Live (TTL). The TraceRoute terminates after
sending probes that can be layer 3 forwarded this number of times. If
the destination is further away, the TraceRoute will not reach it.
The initial Time-To-Live (TTL). This value controls the maximum num-
ber of layer 3 hops that the first set of probes may travel.
The number of consecutive failures that terminate the TraceRoute. If
the device fails to receive a response for this number of consecutive
probes, the TraceRoute terminates.
Specifies the time between probes, in Seconds. If a response is not
received within this interval, then traceroute considers the probe a fail-
ure and sends the next probe. If traceroute does receive a response
to a probe within this interval, then it sends the next probe immedi-
ately.
The UDP destination port number to be used in probe packets. The
port number should be a port that the target host is not listening on, so
that when the probe reaches the destination, it responds with an
ICMPv6 Port Unreachable message.
The size of probe payload in bytes.
The source IP address or interface to use when sending the trace
route command. If source is not required, select None as source
option.
The source IPv6 address to use when sending the trace route com-
mand. This field is enabled when IP Address is selected as source
option.
The interface to use when sending the trace route command. This
field is enabled when Interface is selected as source option.
