ipaddress
— Valid IP address of the destination host.
hostname
— Hostname of the destination host (Range: 1–158 characters).

initTtl

— The initial time-to-live (TTL); the maximum number of router
hops between the local and remote system (Range: 0–255).

maxTtl

— The largest TTL value that can be used (Range:1–255).

maxFail

— Terminate the traceroute after failing to receive a response for
this number of consecutive probes (Range: 0–255).
interval
— The timeout period. If a response is not received within this
period of time, then traceroute considers that probe a failure (printing *)
and sends the next probe. If traceroute does receive a response to a probe,
then it sends the next probe immediately. (Range: 1–60 seconds).

count

— The number of probes to be sent at each TTL level
(Range:1–10).
port
— The destination UDP port of the probe. This should be an unused
port on the remote destination system (Range: 1–65535).
size
— The size, in bytes, of the payload of the Echo Requests sent
(Range: 0–65507 bytes).
