What (who) is traceroute - definition

COMPUTER NETWORK DIAGNOSTIC TOOL

Trace route; Tracert; Traceroute program; Tracerout; Tracepath; TRACERT; Traceroute6; IP tracing; Graphic traceroute; Graphical traceroute; Geographic traceroute; Tracerts; Visual traceroute; Tracert6

traceroute

<networking> A TCP/IP utility, originally Unix, which allows the user to determine the route packets are taking to a particular host. Traceroute works by increasing the "time to live" value of packets and seeing how far they get, until they reach the given destination; thus, a lengthening trail of hosts passed through is built up.

Layer four traceroute

MULTI-PROTOCOL TRACEROUTE ENGINE

Layer Four Trace

Layer Four Traceroute (LFT) is a fast, multi-protocol traceroute engine, that also implements numerous other features including AS number lookups through regional Internet registries and other reliable sources, Loose Source Routing, firewall and load balancer detection, etc. LFT is best known for its use by network security practitioners to trace a route to a destination host through many configurations of packet-filters / firewalls, and to detect network connectivity, performance or latency problems.

Wikipedia

Traceroute

In computing, traceroute and tracert are computer network diagnostic commands for displaying possible routes (paths) and measuring transit delays of packets across an Internet Protocol (IP) network. The history of the route is recorded as the round-trip times of the packets received from each successive host (remote node) in the route (path); the sum of the mean times in each hop is a measure of the total time spent to establish the connection. Traceroute proceeds unless all (usually three) sent packets are lost more than twice; then the connection is lost and the route cannot be evaluated. Ping, on the other hand, only computes the final round-trip times from the destination point.

For Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) the tool sometimes has the name traceroute6 and tracert6.
