hoptracker
hoptracker is a paris-traceroute-like program that can discover the hops in the path, the path MTU and where it changes, measure the TTL/hop limit, guess asymmetric return paths and measure the latency to each hop.
To use hoptracker to its full extent, please use a Ruby version that has PR#9930 included on GitHub or otherwise closes bug #20258.
hoptracker has the following range of functions:
- Determine the hops on the path.
- Determine the MTU of the path and where it changes.
- Estimate how many hops a hop took back to the local computer and display the corresponding asymmetry.
- Show latency (or loss) of three probes to each hop.
HopTracker has the following features:
- Use of Paris traceroute methods to maintain the same path for load balancing.
- Use of 33434 as destination port.
- Since the program does not work asynchronously, latency errors of around 0.1 ms may occur.
