Trace route group
Trace route group
This group uses the following method to detect routes used to reach a destination address.
1. The originating Layer 3 Switch sends a probe packet (a UDP packet) to the destination address
with a time-to-Live (TTL) value of 1.
2. The first Layer 3 Switch that receives this packet decrements the TTL, then drops the packet
and returns a ICMP packet to the originator.
3. The originating Layer 3 Switch records the route in the
4. The originating Layer 3 Switch sends a probe packet (a UDP packet) to the destination address
with a TTL value of 2.
5. The second Layer 3 Switch that receives this packet decrements the TTL, then drops the
packet and returns an ICMP packet to the originator.
6. The originating Layer 3 Switch records the route in
This procedure is repeated until the destination is reached or the maximum TTL is reached.
