Official repository for mtr, a network diagnostic tool
8f0746e26a
- Roger has take over maintenance. - mtr now uses an "int" to pass options to the kernel. - Makes things work on Solaris and *BSD I'm told. - mtr doesn't fire off a flurry of packets when a new second comes around. Instead they are spaced evenly around the whole second. This allows people with a relatively slow first link to do meaningful measurements of whatever is behind that. source: ftp://ftp.bitwizard.nl/mtr/mtr-0.22.tar.gz |

WHAT IS MTR? mtr combines the functionaly of the 'traceroute' and 'ping' programs in a single network diagnostic tool. As mtr starts, it investigates the network connection between the host mtr runs on and a user-specified destination host. After it determines the address of each network hop between the machines, it sends a sequence ICMP ECHO requests to each one to determine the quality of the link to each machine. As it does this, it prints running statistics about each machine. mtr is distributed under the GNU General Public License. See the COPYING file for details. INSTALLING To begin mtr, first use the included configure script: ./configure The configure script will generate a Makefile. Build mtr: make After compiling, install: make install Note that mtr must be suid-root because it requires access to raw IP sockets. See SECURITY for security information.
