Traceroute = Discover Every Hop Between Source and Destination

🎯 Why Use Traceroute?

✔ Identify Routing Path

✔ Detect Network Delays

⚙ How Traceroute Works?

Traceroute TTL (Time To Live) Value-ஐ படிப்படியாக உயர்த்தி Packets அனுப்புகிறது.

ஒவ்வொரு Router-மும் TTL Expire ஆனபோது பதில் அனுப்பும்.

இதனால் முழு Route தெரியும்.
