Syntax: traceroute < ip-address >

[minttl < 1-255 >]
For the current instance of traceroute, changes the minimum
number of hops allowed for each probe packet sent along the
route. If minttl is greater than the actual number of hops, then
the output includes only the hops at and above the minttl
threshold. (The hops below the threshold are not listed.) If
minttl matches the actual number of hops, only that hop is
shown in the output. If minttl is less than the actual number
of hops, then all hops are listed. For any instance of tracer­
oute, if you want a minttl value other than the default, you
must specify that value. (Default: 1)
[maxttl < 1-255 >]
For the current instance of traceroute, changes the maximum
number of hops allowed for each probe packet sent along the
route. If the destination address is further from the switch
than maxttl allows, then traceroute lists the IP addresses for
all hops it detects up to the maxttl limit. For any instance of
traceroute, if you want a maxttl value other than the default,
you must specify that value. (Default: 30)
[timeout < 1-120 >]
For the current instance of traceroute, changes the timeout
period the switch waits for each probe of a hop in the route.
For any instance of traceroute, if you want a timeout value
other than the default, you must specify that value. (Default:
5 seconds)
[probes < 1-5 >
For the current instance of traceroute, changes the number of
queries the switch sends for each hop in the route. For any
instance of traceroute, if you want a probes value other than
the default, you must specify that value. (Default: 3)
A Low Maxttl Causes Traceroute To Halt Before Reaching the
Destination Address. For example, executing traceroute with its default
values for a destination IP address that is four hops away produces a result
similar to this:
packet reply to the switch for each hop.
