  2. traceroute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traceroute

    Some traceroute implementations use TCP packets, such as tcptraceroute and layer four traceroute (lft). PathPing is a utility introduced with Windows NT that combines ping and traceroute functionality. MTR is an enhanced version of ICMP traceroute available for Unix-like and Windows systems. The various implementations of traceroute all rely on ...

  3. Layer four traceroute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layer_four_traceroute

    Layer Four Traceroute (LFT) is a fast, multi-protocol traceroute engine, that also implements numerous other features including AS number lookups through regional Internet registries and other reliable sources, Loose Source Routing, firewall and load balancer detection, etc. LFT is best known for its use by network security practitioners to trace a route to a destination host through many ...

  4. dig (command) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dig_(command)

    dig is a network administration command-line tool for querying the Domain Name System (DNS).. dig is useful for network troubleshooting and for educational purposes. [2] It can operate based on command line option and flag arguments, or in batch mode by reading requests from an operating system file.

  5. MTR (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTR_(software)

    My traceroute, originally named Matt's traceroute (MTR), is a computer program that combines the functions of the traceroute and ping programs in one network diagnostic tool. [ 2 ] MTR probes routers on the route path by limiting the number of hops individual packets may traverse, and listening to responses of their expiry.

  6. Packet Tracer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_Tracer

    Packet Tracer is a cross-platform visual simulation tool designed by Cisco Systems that allows users to create network topologies and imitate modern computer networks.The software allows users to simulate the configuration of Cisco routers and switches using a simulated command line interface.

  7. Footprinting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Footprinting

    Active Footprinting is the process of using tools and techniques, such as performing a ping sweep or using the traceroute command, to gather information on a target. Active Footprinting can trigger a target's Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and may be logged, and thus requires a level of stealth to successfully do. [4]

  8. PathPing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PathPing

    The advantages of PathPing over ping and traceroute are that each node is pinged as the result of a single command, and that the behavior of nodes is studied over an extended time period, rather than the default ping sample of four messages or default traceroute single route trace. The disadvantage is that it takes a total of 25 seconds per hop ...

  9. Network mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_mapping

    The SNMP based approach retrieves data from Router and Switch MIBs in order to build the network map. The active probing approach relies on a series of traceroute-like probe packets in order to build the network map. The route analytics approach relies on information from the routing protocols to build the network map. Each of the three ...
