Chapter 2 Troubleshooting Tools

Third-Party Troubleshooting Tools

Use the ping command when the network is functioning properly to see how the command works. When you are troubleshooting, you can see the difference between normal and abnormal operation.

For detailed information about using the ping and extended ping commands, refer to the

Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference publication.

traceroute Commands

The traceroute user EXEC command discovers the routes packets follow when traveling to their destinations. With the traceroute privileged EXEC command, the supported IP header options are specified, and the switch router can perform a more extensive range of test options.

The traceroute command works by using the error message generated by ATM switch routers when a datagram exceeds its time-to-live (TTL) value. First, probe datagrams are sent with a TTL value of one. This causes the first switch router to discard the probe datagrams and send back “time exceeded” error messages. The traceroute command then sends several probes, and displays the round-trip time for each. After every third probe, the TTL increases by one.

Each outgoing packet can result in one of two error messages. A “time exceeded” error message indicates that an intermediate switch router has seen and discarded the probe. A “port unreachable” error message indicates that the destination node has received the probe and discarded it because it could not deliver the packet to an application. If the timer goes off before a response comes in, traceroute displays an asterisk (*).

The traceroute command terminates when the destination responds, when the maximum TTL is exceeded, or when the user interrupts the traceroute with the escape sequence.

Use the traceroute command when the network is functioning properly to see how the command works under normal conditions. Then when you are troubleshooting you can see the difference between normal and abnormal operation.

For detailed information about using the traceroute and extended traceroute commands, refer to the ATM Switch Router Command Reference publication.

Third-Party Troubleshooting Tools

In many situations, third-party diagnostic tools can be helpful. For example, attaching a network analyzer to a network is less intrusive and is more likely to yield useful information without interrupting the operation of the switch router than using the debug commands, which are processor intensive.

Some typical third-party tools used for troubleshooting internetworks are described in the following sections:

•Volt-Ohm Meters, Digital Multimeters, and Cable Testers

•TDRs and OTDRs

•Network Monitors

•Network Analyzers
