Traceroute (IPv6)
This page lets you perform a traceroute test over IPv6 towards a remote host. Traceroute is a diagnostic tool for
displaying the route and measuring transit delays of packets across an IPv6 network.
Web Interface
To start an IPv6 Traceroute in the web UI:
1.
Click Diagnostics and Traceroute.
2.
Fill in the parameters as needed and press “Start” to initiate the Traceroute session.
Figure 23-4: Traceroute (IPv6)
Parameter descriptions
:
Hostname or IP Address
: The destination IP Address.
DSCP Value
: This value is used for the DSCP value in the IPv4 header. The default value is 0. The valid range is 0-
255.
Number of Probes Per Hop
: Determines the number of probes (packets) sent for each hop. The default value is
3 packets. The valid range is 1-60 packets.
Response Timeout
: Determines the number of seconds to wait for a reply to a sent request. The default is 3
seconds. The valid range is 1-86400 seconds.
Max TTL Value
: Determines the maximum value of the Time-To-Live (TTL) field in the IPv4 header. If this value is
reached before the specified remote host is reached the test stops. The default is 255. The valid range is 1-255.
VID for Source Interface
: This field can be used to force the test to use a specific local VLAN interface as the
source interface. Leave this field empty for automatic selection based on routing configuration.
Note
: You may
only specify either the VID or the IP Address for the source interface.
Address for Source Interface
: This field can be used to force the test to use a specific local interface with the
specified IP address as the source interface. The specified IP address must be configured on a local interface.
Leave this field empty for automatic selection based on routing configuration.
Note
: You may only specify either
the VID or the IP Address for the source interface.
Print Numeric Addresses
: By default, the traceroute command will print out hop information using a reverse
DNS lookup for the acquired host IP addresses. This may slow down the display if the DNS information is not
available. Selecting this option will prevent the reverse DNS lookup and force the traceroute command to print
numeric IP addresses instead.
