traceroute
Use the traceroute command in Privileged EXEC mode to discover the IP
routes that packets actually take when traveling to their destinations.
Use of the optional VRF parameter executes the command within the
context of the VRF specific routing table.
Syntax
traceroute [vrf vrf-name ] [ip] ipaddress | hostname [ initTtl initTtl ] [
maxTtl
maxTtl ] [ maxFail maxFail ] [ interval interval ] [ count count ] [
port
port ] [ size size ][source { src-ip-address |vlan vlan-id |loopback
loopback-id }]
• vrf vrf-name —The name of the VRF associated with the routing table
context used by the command. If no vrf is specified, the global routing
table context is used.
•
ipaddress —Valid IP address of the destination host.
•
hostname —Hostname of the destination host. (Range: 1–158 characters).
The command allows spaces in the host name when specified in double
quotes. For example,
console(config)#snmp-server host
"host name"
• initTtl —The initial time-to-live (TTL); the maximum number of router
hops between the local and remote system (Range: 0–255).
•
maxTtl —The largest TTL value that can be used (Range:1–255).
•
maxFail —Terminate the traceroute after failing to receive a response for
this number of consecutive probes (Range: 0–255).
•
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).
