RE: could ping but couldn't traceroute

traceroute doesnt use UDP. it uses ICMP. It send ICMP echos, with ever
increasing TTLs. i.e. the first one has a TTL of 1, next 2, next 3. Each
router int he path decrements the TTL, it it hits 0, the router sends back a
TTL expired. Thats how your computer knows the hops in between source and
destination. You need to make sure echo-request is allowed outbound, and
echo-reply, and ttl-expired are allowed inbound.
