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.
