Using a DNS Name To Initiate a Trace Route
EXAMPLE:
Suppose you want to trace the route from the HP 6208M-SX to a remote server identified as NYC02 on domain
newyork.com. Because the newyork.com domain is already defined on the switch, you need to enter only the host
name, NYC02, as noted below.
USING THE CLI
HP6208# traceroute nyc02
Syntax: traceroute <host-ip-addr> [maxttl <value>] [minttl <value>] [numeric] [timeout <value>]
[source-ip <ip addr>]
The only required parameter is the IP address of the host at the other end of the route. See the Command Line
Interface Reference for information about the parameters.
After you enter the command, a message indicating that the DNS query is in process and the current gateway
address (IP address of the domain name server) being queried appear on the screen:
Type Control-c to abort
Sending DNS Query to 209.157.22.199
Tracing Route to IP node 209.157.22.80
To ABORT Trace Route, Please use stop-traceroute command.
Trac ed route to target IP node 209.157.22.80:
IP Address Round Trip Time 1 Round Trip Time2
207 .95.6.30 93 msec 121 msec
NOTE: In the above example, 209.157.22.199 is the IP address of the domain name server (default DNS
gateway address), and 209.157.22.80 represents the IP address of the NYC02 host.
