network tracing utility designed to map the path that data packets take to reach a specified destination. By sending packets with increasing time-to-live (TTL) values, trc_route identifies the routers along the path, providing valuable insights into network topology and potential issues. While offering a fundamental tracing capability, trc_route may have limitations compared to fully featured traceroute tools, such as missing advanced options or detailed hop information.
