Field descriptions
traceroute
This command provides the ab ility to trace the route of pack ets originated from
DEFINITY IP boards through the LAN. The output shows the ip address of eac h
router or host (hop) that the pac kets encounter and the time elapse d between
each hop. If a DEFINITY IP board has trouble communicating with a far-end
device, the traceroute c ommand can determine “ how far” packets g et toward
the destination.
DEFINITY IP boards include:
■TN799B (or later suffix) CLAN board
■TN802B Medpro board
The output form lists:
■Hops traversed from source to d estination
■IP addresses of the hop points and the final destination
■Observed round-trip delay from the source to each hop point
If no reply is received from a p otential hop point, the IP Address field c ontains
stars (*), which indic ates a timeout condition.
The primary use of this command is to determine quickly and unambiguously if
the fault lies within Lucent-provided equipment or if the fault is with the LAN or
LAN administration to which the DEFINITY ECS switch is connected.
