ABOUT TRACERT

The tracert command is used to visually see a network packet being sent and received and the amount of hops required for that packet to get to its destination.

Users with Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows XP who need additional information network latency and network loss should also consider using the pathping command.

SYNTAXtracert [-d] [-h maximum_hops] [-j host-list] [-w timeout] target_name


Options:-d Do not resolve addresses to hostnames.
-h maximum_hops Maximum number of hops to search for target.
-j host-list Loose source route along host-list.
-w timeout Wait timeout milliseconds for each reply.


EXAMPLES

Below is an example when we used tracert on www.computerhope.com. As you can see in the below example, we had a very short list and time to get to its destination because of the location we are

.1 169 ms 190 ms 160 ms slc1-tc.xmission.com [166.70.1.20]
2 159 ms 160 ms 190 ms cisco0-tc.xmission.com [166.70.1.1]
3 165 ms 189 ms 159 ms www.computerhope.com [166.70.10.23]

About Ping

Short for Packet InterNet Groper, ping is a utility used to verify if a network data packet is capable of being distributed to an address without errors. The ping utility is commonly used to check for network errors.
In computer gaming, a ping, also known as a high or low ping, is a measurement of how fast the connection to the game server the player has. For example, a player with a 50 ping is more than likely going to have a much easier and better game than a player with a 250 ping.

Helps in determining TCP/IP Networks IP address as well as determine issues with the network and assists in resolving them.

SYNTAXping [-t] [-a] [-n count] [-l size] [-f] [-i TTL] [-v TOS]
[-r count] [-s count] [[-j host-list] | [-k host-list]]
[-w timeout] destination-list


Options:
-t Pings the specified host until stopped.
To see statistics and continue - type Control-Break;
To stop - type Control-C.
-a Resolve addresses to hostnames.
-n count Number of echo requests to send.
-l size Send buffer size.
-f Set Don't Fragment flag in packet.
-i TTL Time To Live.
-v TOS Type Of Service.
-r count Record route for count hops.
-s count Timestamp for count hops.
-j host-list Loose source route along host-list.
-k host-list Strict source route along host-list.
-w timeout Timeout in milliseconds to wait for each reply.


EXAMPLES

ping localhost - Pings the local host, this will allow you to see if the computer is able to send information out and receive the information back. Note that this does not send information over a network but may allow you to see if the card is being seen.

ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - Allows you to ping another computer where the x's are located are where you would place the IP address of the computer you are attempting to ping. If this is not able to complete this should relay back an unsuccessful message which could be an indication of cable issues, network card issues, hub issue, etc.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

QUESTION:

How do I determine a web page's IP address using the ping command?

ANSWER:

You can determine the IP address by typing the domain of the address within the PING command. For example, typing:

ping www.computerhope.com

would indicate on the first line that our IP address is 166.70.10.23.

@Ishan, 'ping' get the statistics from the Net. For eg., how many bytes are transferrred,
time taken in ms), IP address of the site etc., You can use 'ping' command to test
whether you are able to connect to the Net or whether any particular site is down.
It's very fast compared to the browser!!
MS copied it from Unix!!
