Secure Auditor™ Trace Route utility allows tracking the path of a packet from its origination to destination address. It allows the user to trace the track of a particular transmission on the network. When a packet is send by a system, it adopts a certain path through other servers those rebroadcast a packet to reach its final destination.
For Secure Bytes Trace Route utility, all the user has to do is to provide a host name or IP address of the target. Secure Bytes Trace Route will automatically trace, track and display the IP address, DNS name, response time, city and country of each hop in seconds. This will exactly determine the path which the transmission took to reach to a particular target.
