System name: bart-savagewood
Type and version: SPARC/Classic 8.1.3 (with mkserv)
Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
loose source route using traceroute on an 8.1 sun
What's wrong:
it suggests an interesting network topology:
bart-savagewood:29521.null% traceroute -g capcom.mit.edu tunafish.mit.edu
traceroute to tunafish.mit.edu (18.239.0.217), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
1 E40-RTR-FDDI.MIT.EDU (18.168.0.11) 7 ms 8 ms 3 ms
2 SPATULA-CITY.MIT.EDU (18.177.0.155) 6 ms * 8 ms
3 E40-RTR-E40-STAFF-ETHER.MIT.EDU (18.177.0.1) 5 ms 4 ms 4 ms
4 * * *
(bart-savagewood in on 18.70 behind w20-rtr)
What should have happened:
it should have included a router between bart-savagewood and e40-rtr.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
a recent version of traceroute may fix this; available from ftp.ee.lbl.gov.
