Matt's Traceroute: combined traceroute and ping tool. More information: https://manned.org/mtr.

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

mtr {{example.com}}

• Disable IP address and host name mapping:

mtr {{[-n|--no-dns]}} {{example.com}}

• Generate output after pinging each hop 10 times:

mtr {{[-w|--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 {{[-i|--interval]}} {{10}} {{example.com}}

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

mtr {{[-z|--aslookup]}} {{example.com}}

• Display both IP address and reverse DNS name:

mtr {{[-b|--show-ips]}} {{example.com}}
