Tracing an IPv4 route

NOTE
This section describes the IPv4 traceroute command. For details about IPv6 traceroute command, refer to the Brocade FastIron Layer 3 Routing Configuration Guide.

Use the traceroute command to determine the path through which a Brocade device can reach another device. Enter the command from any mode of the CLI.

The CLI displays trace route information for each hop as soon as the information is received. Traceroute requests display all responses to a given TTL. In addition, if there are multiple equal-cost routes to the destination, the Brocade device displays up to three responses by default.
