Using Traceroute
The Traceroute tab provides a convenient tool for initiating Trace Route 
commands. 
Traceroute is a utility that records the route (the specific gateway 
computers at each hop) through the Internet between your MicroRed 
node and a specified destination. It also calculates and displays the 
amount of time each hop took. Traceroute is a handy tool for 
understanding where problems are in the Internet network.
