Overview

Simple Trace

Using the Scapy Multi-Traceroute page can be as simple as entering the host name you want to perform the trace on (www.techhounds.com in the example below) and pressing the Run button.

Once the trace completes you will get a graphical chart (as an SVG image shown below) that contains:

  • The list of IP addresses exposed by the trace (clicking on an IP address will bring up the IP tools widget).
  • Time measurements from the source to each segment of the trace.
  • ASN groupings (when possible) of each segment of the trace.
