The Traceroute Manager can be used to trace the
connection from your web site to the place where you are connecting from, or to another
location on the Internet. To trace from your web site to your current location (User's
I.P. Address), just press the button labled "From yourdomain.com to User's I.P.
Address". To trace from your web site to any other location on the Internet, place
its name in the text box labled "Server Name" and click on the "Trace
Route" button.
NOTE: Running a traceroute can take a while sometimes. Traceroute is controlled by
ICMP packets. Many routers are programmed to handle these test packets as low priority.
Therefore the delay you notice in the time it takes to reveal a hop is not important. What
is important is the reported time in the three trials between the two hops. |
