- The 'hop' commands are used to test the connectivity of the
- network.
-
- _________________________________________________________________
- hop check <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.
-
- ICMP message tracing should be turned off before this command is
- executed (see the 'icmp trace' command).
-
- >> Example: hop check ns9liz
-
-
- _________________________________________________________________
- 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.
-
- >> Example: hop maxttl 10
-
-
- _________________________________________________________________
- 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.
-
- >> Example: hop maxwait 60
-
-
- _________________________________________________________________
- hop queries [<count>] Default: 3
- _________________________________________________________________
- Display or set the number of UDP probes that will be sent at each
- stage of the trace.
-
- >> Example: hop queries 2
-
-
- _________________________________________________________________
- hop trace [on | off] Default: off
- _________________________________________________________________
- Display or set the flag that controls the display of additional
- information during a hop check session.

- >> Example: hop trace on
