Switch Management Commands 2353
• interval—The timeout period. If a response is not received within this
period of time, then traceroute considers that probe a failure (printing
*) and sends the next probe. If traceroute does receive a response to a
probe, then it sends the next probe immediately. (Range: 1–60 seconds).
• count—The number of probes to be sent at each TTL level (Range:1–
10).
• port—The destination UDP port of the probe. This should be an
unused port on the remote destination system (Range: 1–65535).
• size—The size, in bytes, of the payload of the Echo Requests sent
(Range: 0–39936 bytes).
• src-ip-address—The IPv4 source address to use in the ICMP echo
request packets.
• vlan-id—A valid VLAN interface.
• loopback-id—A configured loopback ID

User Guidelines
Use of the optional VRF parameter executes the command within the
context of the VRF-specific routing table.
Traceroute operates by sending a sequence of Internet Control Message
Protocol (ICMP) echo request packets. The time-to-live (TTL) value, is used
in determining the intermediate routers through which the packet flows
