> Hi James,
Thanks for your response. I do see that but i was wondering if there was any
way to interpret this from the traceroute results. In addition I was trying
to understand why and how does traceroute report multiple paths. When a
traceroute packet is sent with ttl increments is it that one of the ttl goes
to the alternate path. Why do windows machines never report multiple paths
where as when tracerouting from a cisco router it reports it. Windows uses
icmp wheras cisco uses udp but shouldn't the functionality be the same?
Sorry I have so many questions but its just something that is really
bothering me and I have been unable to find a good explanation for it on the
web. Thanks for your help.
