ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
452
traceroute mac port
traceroute mac <mac> {inward-facing-end-point} port <port> {domain}
<domain_name> {association} <association_name> {ttl <ttl>}
Description
Allows you to send out a Link Trace Message (LTM) for the specified MA from the MEP configured on
the port for the specified MAC address to the end of the MA.
Syntax Description
Default
TTL default value is 64.
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to sent an LTM from the MEP on the port for the given MAC address. If no MEP is
configured on the port, the system returns an error message.
If both an inward-facing and outward-facing MEP are configured on the same port, the system uses the
outward-facing MEP. If you want to use the inward-facing MEP in this situation, enter the
inward-
facing-end-point
keyword. After you issue the command, the system prints out the route the LTM
message took.
Each MIP along the route passes the LTM along only in the direction of the path and sends a packet
back to the originating MAC notifying that it passed the LTM.
This command returns the following information for each point along the route:
●
TTL value
●
CFM source MAC address
●
Reply

both an outward-facing MEP and an inward-facing MEP are configured on the
same port.

Enter the port number of the MEP from which you are issuing the LTM.
domain
Enter this keyword.
domain_name
Enter the name of the domain from which you are issuing the ping.
