Research Trace Route #2

Open JBraunsmaJr opened 3 years ago

Prototype implementing Trace-Route. If given a source/destination IP -- can we trace all the hops between the two?

If so -- In conjunction with #1 -- a graphical representation of these paths should be implemented Additionally, a textual representation should be implemented as well

Hello Jon. I can take this one for action.

Sweet! If your experimentation is successful it would be nice to receive some sort of list or data structure containing the traceroute information. This way we can easily work with the data elsewhere

Such as, all the IP addresses (in order) the packet traveled and whatever other info you think could prove useful

Now that I think of it, traceroute would have to be done from the machine itself.

So knowing source and destination, traceroute would have to originate from the source device. Right? Otherwise it'd come from wherever the script is ran
