Command introduced before JUNOS Release 7.4.

Description

Display trace information about a multicast path from this router to a gateway router.

Options

gateway gatewaySend the trace query to a gateway multicast address.

brief | detail — (Optional) Display the specified level of output.

extra-hops extra-hops(Optional) Number of hops to take after reaching a nonresponsive router. The range of values is 0 through 255.

group group(Optional) Group address for which to trace the path. The default group address is 0.0.0.0.

interface interface-name(Optional) Source address for sending the trace query.

interval interval(Optional) Number of seconds to wait before gathering statistics again. The default value is 10.

loop — (Optional) Loop indefinitely, displaying rate and loss statistics.

max-hops max-hops(Optional) Maximum hops to trace toward the source. The range of values is 0 through 255. The default value is 32 hops.

max-queries max-queries(Optional) Maximum number of query attempts for any hop. The range of values is 1 through 32. The default value is 3.

no-resolve — (Optional) Do not attempt to display addresses symbolically.

no-router-alert — (Optional) Do not use the router-alert IP option.

response response(Optional) Send trace response to a host or multicast address.

routing-instance routing-instance-name(Optional) Trace a particular routing instance.

ttl ttl(Optional) IP time-to-live value. The range of values is 0 through 255. Local queries to the multicast group use TTL 1. Otherwise, the default value is 127.
