clogging the network.

, OS TLL numbers?

128 Windows, 64 linux, 255 solaris(kapp)

What is Traceroute
Answer:
Traceroute is when you send a packet with a TTL value of 1
once it reaches the first router it will die sending a ICMP
message to sender, at which point the sender can send
another one with a value of 2 to see how far it will go. By
doing this we can see how many hops it will take to reach
our target. (A good way of enumeration of a network, when
in a black box pen-test.)
