Exercise M2_4.5

Addresses, packets and routes

Connect to VisualRoute server.

IP address of my machine is 213.122.185.125 and it took 11 hops to trace my IP address.
IP changes every time because it is dynamic and not static ie. My ISP assignes a new one every time.

Trace a route.

Typed www.nyt.com   and it took 19 hops and 118 ms to reach Sunyvale Global Centre Caliphoneia from there its trace was blocked.
Typed www.bbc.co.uk and it took 6 hops and 1 ms to reach its destination with no loss

At other times of the day the results were differant but only by millie seconds.
