Common Targets
Notes
- - Some routers block ICMP. Asterisk hops do not always mean outage.
- - Routes and latency can vary by ISP and time window.
- - For cross-border traffic, run multiple tests during business hours.
- - Combine results with DNS, HTTP, and port connectivity checks.
Documentation
Route tracer tool provides cross-platform command generation and parameter guidance so you can run real traceroute/tracert in local terminal and identify route bottlenecks quickly.
How to Use
- Enter domain or IPv4 address, and set max hops plus timeout.
- Commands are generated automatically, then choose your OS group.
- Copy command to local terminal and inspect hop-by-hop output.
- Use latency, loss, and timeout hops to locate bottlenecks.
Command Notes by OS
Windows
- tracert: basic route tracing for fast path check.
- pathping: adds packet-loss stats for stability diagnosis.
Linux
- traceroute: classic route tracing command.
- tracepath: lightweight tracing without root in many cases.
- mtr: continuous probing with latency and loss metrics.
macOS
- traceroute: default tracing command.
- traceroute -I: uses ICMP probes.
- traceroute -P tcp: uses TCP probes for restricted networks.
Use Cases
- Locate intermediate bottlenecks for slow website access
- Compare latency paths across regions
- Validate connectivity after datacenter or egress changes
- Run pre-release network checks and incident troubleshooting
