You suspect one of the routers in the network is slowing the system by creating a bottleneck. You decide to use the tracert command between your computer and another computer in the office to see how many “hops” it takes to reach the host. You’ll review the response time for each device along the route (in milliseconds) and you only want to see the IP address of each device, not resolve the hostnames. If the IP address of the destination host was 1.2.3.4, which is the correct command?
  1. tracert -h 1.2.3.4
  2. tracert -a 1.2.3.4
  3. tracert -d 1.2.3.4
  4. tracert -w 1.2.3.4
Explanation
Answer: C - tracert -d is correct. Using the -d switch with the tracert command will display the IP address of each device at each “hop”.

Key Takeaway: Note: certain IP address ranges cannot be sent across a router and are considered “unroutable”. For example, 10.x.x.x and 192.168.x.x
