- hop
-
- The 'hop' commands are used to test the connectivity of the
- network.
-
- hop check [-n] <host>
- Initiate a hop check session to the specified host. This uses a
- series of UDP "probe" packets with increasing IP time-to-live
- (TTL) fields to determine the sequence of gateways in the path to
- the specified destination. This function is patterned after the
- UNIX 'traceroute' facility. If the -n option is used, no DNS
- lookups are done, so no names are listed for each hop.
-
- ICMP message tracing should be turned off before this command is
- executed (see the 'icmp trace' command).
-
-
- hop maxttl [<hops>] Default: 30
- Display or set the maximum TTL value to be used in hop check
- sessions. This effectively bounds the radius of the search.
-
-
- hop maxwait [<seconds>] Default: 5
- Display or set the maximum interval that a hop check session will
- wait for responses at each stage of the trace.
-
-
- hop queries [<count>] Default: 3
- Display or set the number of UDP probes that will be sent at each
- stage of the trace.
-
-
- hop trace [on | OFF] Default: off
- Display or set the flag that controls the display of additional
- information during a hop check session.
