Several useful network tools — this list will be updated every week.
- Gtrace is a traceroute visualization tool that uses a combination of methods
to either determine or guess at the physical location of a node in
the traceroute path. It is flexible enough to support addition of new
databases, heuristics to map IP addresses to physical location and maps. - mturoute is a small Windows tool to determine the path MTU between you and a specified host.In traceroute mode it will additionally show you the mtu at every hop between you and the specified host.
- NeoTrace provides graphical traceroute information.
- Prtraceroute is a version of traceroute, from the RIPE
- Internet Routing Registry toolset, that presents routing policy information together
with the real time packet trace obtained from traceroute. It adds AS information to the
normal traceroute output, making use of Routing Registry (RR) database information. - Scamper is a program that conducts traceroute to large numbers of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in parallel to fill a specified packets-per-second rate.
- TCPtraceroute uses TCP to a port at the end node to do a traceroute.
- Traceroute-nanog has additional features like AS lookup, TOS support,
microsecond timestamps, path MTU discovery, parallel probing and others. - VisualRoute a GUI based traceroute for Windows.
