Field descriptions
traceroute
This command provides the ability to trace the route of packets originated from
DEFINITY IP boards through the LAN. The output shows the ip address of each
router or host (hop) that the packets encounter and the time elapsed between
each hop. If a DEFINITY IP board has trouble communicating with a far-end
device, the traceroute command can determine “how far” packets get toward
the destination.
DEFINITY IP boards include:
■ TN799B (or later suffix) CLAN board
■ TN802B Medpro board
The output form lists:
■ Hops traversed from source to destination
■ IP addresses of the hop points and the final destination
■ Observed round-trip delay from the source to each hop point
If no reply is received from a potential hop point, the
IP Address
field contains
stars (*), which indicates a timeout condition.
The primary use of this command is to determine quickly and unambiguously if
the fault lies within Lucent-provided equipment or if the fault is with the LAN or
LAN administration to which the DEFINITY ECS switch is connected.
