Hi all, Just a quick question. What is the real difference between a TCP paris-traceroutes and an UDP paris-traceroute ? How do the probes perform each of them?
The Atlas traceroute can perform traceroute over ICMP, TCP, and UDP. The difference here is which protocol is used to send the probing packets. Beyond that, the 'paris' option tries to create packets in such a way that the computed flow id is stable during a run of traceroute. This can be done in different ways for ICMP, TCP, and UDP. Philip
