| 29 | The <application>Traceroute</application> package contains a program
|
---|
| 30 | which is used to display the network route that packets take to reach a
|
---|
| 31 | specified host. This is a standard network troubleshooting tool. If you
|
---|
| 32 | find yourself unable to connect to another system, traceroute can help
|
---|
| 33 | pinpoint the problem.
