Matt's Traceroute: combined traceroute and ping tool. More information: https://www.bitwizard.nl/mtr/.

• Traceroute to a host and continuously ping all intermediary hops:

mtr {{example.com}}

• Disable IP address and host name mapping:

mtr --no-dns {{example.com}}

• Generate output after pinging each hop 10 times:

mtr --report-wide {{example.com}}

• Force IP IPv4 or IPV6:

mtr -4 {{example.com}}

• Wait for a given time (in seconds) before sending another packet to the same hop:

mtr --interval {{10}} {{example.com}}

• Display the Autonomous System Number (ASN) for each hop:

mtr --aslookup {{example.com}}

• Display both IP address and reverse DNS name:

mtr --show-ips {{example.com}}
