This traceroute command displays the route that packets take to a remote host. In this example, note that display lines 2 and 3 are identical. This is due to a bug in the kernel on the second hop system, lbl-csam.arpa , that forwards packets with a zero TTL. (This is a bug in the distributed version of BSD Version 4.3.)

In this example, gateways 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17 either do not send ICMP "time exceeded" messages or send them with a TTL too small to reach the local host. Further investigation is required to determine the cause. For example, by contacting the system administrators for gateways 14 through 17, you could discover that these gateways are running the MIT C Gateway code that does not send "time exceeded" messages.
