Traceroute : don't understand the data

[GRANDIERE]

Hi,
when i launch the command traceroute i don't understand the response.

RPU0H057(root):->traceroute 150.0.207.131
traceroute to 150.0.207.131 (150.0.207.131), 30 hops max, 20 byte packets
1 150.62.104.1 (150.62.104.1) 11 ms 24 ms 24 ms

What means the three times 11 ms 24 ms 24 ms ?

Regards.

It sends 3 packets and those are the times for the 3 packets to that hop in the route.

# man traceroute

will give you all kinds of information.

These numbers represent the 'max time', 'min time', and 'average time' to the
destination. (in milliseconds)

Hi,

Every time you trace a route, the traceroute command sends three packets to each "hop" it traverses. The 2 times it shows is the time these packets take to reach the next hop.

Hope it clarifies... For more info, "man traceroute"
