Question about built-in first/second hop latency measurements
Hello all, For the built-in latency measurements to first/second hops, my assumption has pretty much always been that these are done with hop-limited probes (i.e., with TTL or hop limit set to 1 or 2). Is that true, or are these measurements taken using “direct” pings? Thanks! Joel
Hi Joel, Results from measurements 1 and 2 are really the first and second hops of a single traceroute measurement with a max_hops value of 2. Regards, Chris Amin RIPE NCC On 22/07/2019 00:16, Joel Sommers wrote:
