🔍 Key Concepts

• TCP/IP utilities commonly used at the command prompt (what each one is for) • Difference between testing reachability vs. showing the path/hops a packet takes • Which tool gives per‑hop routing information across the network

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which of these choices shows every router (hop) your traffic passes through, often with increasing time‑to‑live (TTL) values? • Which tool is mainly for checking if a remote host responds at all, without showing the full route? • Which options are mostly used for file transfer or local IP configuration, not for mapping the route across the network?

✅ Before You Answer

• Eliminate any option that is for file transfer, not diagnostics. • Eliminate any option that is primarily for displaying your own computer’s IP configuration. • Between the remaining diagnostic tools, pick the one that is known for listing each hop along the route to the destination, not just whether the destination is reachable.
