TRACEROUTE 1.4

Traceroute is a system administrators utility to trace the route
ip packets from the current system take in getting to some
destination system. See the comments at the front of the
program for a description of its use.
This program uses raw ip sockets and must be run as root (or installed
setuid to root).
A couple of awk programs to massage the traceroute output are
included. "mean.awk" and "median.awk" compute the mean and median time
to each hop, respectively. I've found that something like
traceroute -q 7 foo.somewhere >t
awk -f median.awk t | xgraph
can give you a quick picture of the bad spots on a long path (median is
usually a better noise filter than mean).
Problems, bugs, questions, desirable enhancements, source code
contributions, etc., should be sent to the email address
"traceroute@ee.lbl.gov".
