Traceroute Command
Tracert is windows command (network identifier) used to trace the path of a data packet on a network to a specified destination. Tracert also records the route and time taken to the destination.
Tracert uses ICMP packets with TTL (time to live) values. The response time of each step is calculated. This measurement is questioned many times to ensure accuracy. It also helps to identify the points of failure encountered on the way to the determined destination.
Tracert shows a list of all intermediate hops along with IP addresses and delay values in milliseconds for each hop. Tracert outputs first the target’s IP address, then the maximum number of hops it will traverse. Displays the received name, IP address and response time in each tab. In Windows command line, this command is used as Tracert. It is used as traceroute in Linux command line and Cisco IOS command line
