TRCROUTE Utility
The Trace Route Utility (TRCROUTE) enables administrators to discover
the path or route a connection is taking from a client to a server. If
TRCROUTE encounters a problem, it returns an error stack to the client
instead of a single error. These additional error messages make
troubleshooting easier.
TRCROUTE is different from TNSPING in that it travels as a special type of connect packet, and is routed as such. As it travels toward its destination, the TRCROUTE connect packet collects the TNS addresses of every node it travels through. If an error occurs, TRCROUTE collects error information that shows where the error occurred. The TRCROUTE displays the information collected on the client screen. You can redirect the TRCROUTE output to a file, and print it if you wish.
The TRCROUTE uses minimal resources. It gathers information in the connect data of a special connect packet; standard connect packets are not affected.
The server is not affected by TRCROUTE. The listener receives and processes the TRCROUTE connect packet. It returns the information to the client by putting it into a refuse packet. The server does not need to start up any new processes or deal with dummy connections.
Using TRCROUTE
To invoke TRCROUTE, enter the following from the command line:

Part of the link is on the next line.
