The traceroute command displays the network path through which the node you’re on communicates with a device that you identify by IP address or FQDN. You might run this diagnostic, for example, if communication between the node and another device, such as a DNS server, is taking longer than expected.
For each pair of points in the network path, the traceroute command displays the round-trip time between the two points for each of three probes. You can use this information, for example, to determine whether the network topology is configured correctly.
To execute the traceroute command:
1.From the Appliance Diagnostics menu, enter 2.
A prompt for an IP address or FQDN appears.
2.Enter the target device IP address or FQDN.
The results of the traceroute command are displayed on the screen.
3.After viewing the display, press Enter to return to the Appliance Diagnostics menu.
Here’s a sample response to the traceroute command:
