Each line lists the routing hop number, the 3 response times from that hop, and the IP
address and FQDN (if any) of that hop. Typically a value of <1ms indicates a local router.
If the appliance does not have a complete route to the destination, output similar to the
following appears:
Tracing route to 10.0.0.1 over a maximum of 30 hops
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 172.16.1.2
2 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 172.16.1.10
3 * * * Request timed out.
4 * * * Request timed out.
5 ^C
The asterisks ( * ) and “Request timed out.” indicate no response from that hop in the
network routing.
