Valid VLAN IDs are from 1 to 4094. detail (Optional) Specify that detailed information appears. Defaults There is no default. Command Modes Privileged EXEC Command History Release Modification 12.1(19)EA1 This command was first introduced. Usage Guidelines For Layer 2 traceroute to function properly, Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) must be enabled on all the switches in the network. Do not disable CDP. When the switch detects a device in the Layer 2 path that does not support Layer 2 traceroute, the switch continues to send Layer 2 trace queries and lets them time out. The maximum number of hops identified in the path is ten. Layer 2 traceroute supports only unicast traffic. If you specify a multicast source or destination MAC address, the physical path is not identified, and an error message appears.

  • Version Oct 2009 Page 1 of 3 in Order to Assist in Troubleshooting, We Will Need a Traceroute from One Or More of the Affected M
    -- Slow response time or cannot access application at all but LeadMaster is up -- In order to assist in troubleshooting, we will need a traceroute from one or more of the affected machines. The traceroute should be run from an affected machine when they are experiencing slow response time. Please refer to the information below for instructions on running a traceroute. About Response Time Slow response time can be the result of a number of different problems. There could be congestion on the internet between you and us that slows down your connection to us. To determine whether this is the problem, perform a traceroute test as described below to figure out if you are just experiencing bad internet connectivity, and not a problem with any of our servers. Please follow the steps below to run a series of three traceroute tests to display the response time of the hops necessary for data to travel from your local system over the internet to our data center as well as details on the response time for each hop. The traceroute should be run when you are experiencing slowness, as it is a “real time” snapshot of the routing and response time. A. Run a Traceroute 1. Go to the command (DOS) prompt. - In Windows XP, go to Start>Run; type "command" (without the quotes) and click OK - In Windows 2000 click Start>Run; type: “cmd.exe” (without the quotes) and click OK. - In Windows 95/98 click Start>Programs; then click the "MsDos Prompt" icon. - In some Windows systems, you may need to go to Start>Programs>Accessories and look for the selection called Command Prompt 2.
