Command Parameters
- <1-1444>
- Specifies the size of the probe
packet. The range depends on the hardware platform.
- grt
- Specifies traceroute is executed
in Global Router (GRT) context.

Note
Exception: not supported on VSP 8600
Series.
- -m <1-255>
- Specifies the is maximum
time-to-live (TTL).
- mgmt
- Run a traceroute test using a zero source IP address and route lookup in the main
table.
- mgmt clip
- Run a traceroute test using a
Segmented Management Instance. If you do not use the mgmt parameter, the
traceroute command uses the IP routing stack to initiate the traceroute
request.
- mgmt oob
- Run a traceroute test using a Segmented Management Instance. If you do not use
the mgmt parameter, the traceroute command uses the IP routing stack to initiate
the traceroute request.
- mgmt vlan
- Run a traceroute test using a
Segmented Management Instance. If you do not use the mgmt parameter, the
traceroute command uses the IP routing stack to initiate the traceroute
request.
- -p <1-65535>
- Specifies the base UDP port number.

Note
If you send a traceroute command to a Segmented Management Interface or
VOSS interface address, you must use a UDP port range of 33434-33534.
- -q <1-255>
- Specifies the number of probes per
TTL.
- source WORD<1-256>
- Specifies the source IP address
for use in traceroutes.
- -v
- Specifies verbose mode (detailed
output).
- vrf WORD<1-16>
- Specifies the VRF instance by VRF
name.
- -w <1-255>
- Specifies the wait time per
probe.
- WORD<0-256>
- Specifies the hostname, or IP
address.
- WORD<0-256> <1-1176>
- Specifies the wait time per probe.
The range depends on the hardware platform.
- WORD<0-256> -m <1-255>
- Specifies the is maximum
time-to-live (TTL).
- WORD<0-256> -p <1-65535>
- Specifies the base UDP port
number.
- WORD<0-256> -q <1-255>
- Specifies the number of probes per
TTL.
- WORD<0-256> source WORD<1-256>
- Source address for trace
route.
- WORD<0-256> -v
- Specifies verbose mode (detailed
output).
- WORD<0-256> vrf WORD<1-16>
- Vrf name (IPv4 only).
- WORD<0-256> -w <1-255>
- Specifies the source IP address
for use in traceroutes.
