Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001245

A network diagnostic tool that maps the path data packets take across an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It identifies the sequence of routers that a packet traverses from a source to a destination host. The utility measures the round-trip delay to each hop along the path, often displaying the IP address and hostname of each router.
