It currently supports TCP, UDP, and ICMP traces. 'TraceProto' sends packets with a modified time-to-live (ttl) field. As the packets move toward the destination, each hop decrements the time-to-live. If the ttl reaches 0 before the packet reaches its destination (in normal network traffic it is unusual for the ttl to reach 0 before the packet reaches it destination), the hop that did the final decrement sends back an icmp packet informing the source that the packet expired before reaching its destination. TraceProto uses a series of packets with smaller ttl values, so that each hop between the source and the destination responds.<br /> |User level=none<br /> |Status=Live<br /> |Component programs=<br /> |Homepage URL=http://traceproto.sourceforge.net/index.php<br /> |VCS checkout command=<br /> |Computer languages=C<br /> |Documentation note=<br /> |Paid support=<br /> |IRC help=<br /> |IRC general=<br /> |IRC development=<br /> |Related projects=Tcptraceroute,Xtraceroute,Traceroute<br /> |Keywords=TCP,protocol,UDP,traceroute,port,ICMP<br /> |Is GNU=n<br /> |Last review by=Janet Casey<br /> |Last review date=2004-12-13<br /> |Submitted by=Database conversion<br /> |Submitted date=2011-04-01<br /> |Version identifier=1.1.0<br /> |Version date=2004-12-13<br /> |Version status=stable<br /> |Version download=http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/traceproto/traceproto-1.1.0.tar.gz?download<br /> |License verified date=2004-07-27<br /> |Version comment=1.1.0 stable released 2004-12-13<br /> }}<br /> {{Person<br /> |Role=Maintainer<br /> |Real name=Eric Hope<br /> |Email=skippy@skippylair.net<br /> |Resource URL=<br /> }}<br /> {{Resource<br /> |Resource audience=Bug Tracking,Developer,Support<br /> |Resource kind=E-mail<br /> |Resource URL=mailto:skippy@skippylair.net<br /> }}<br /> {{Software category<br /> |Interface=command-line<br /> |System-administration=network-hookup<br /> |Use=system-administration<br /> }}<br /> {{Project license<br /> |License=GPLv2orlater<br /> |License verified by=Janet Casey<br /> |License verified date=2004-07-27<br /> }}</div>
