QuestionQ44

Network Forensics and Traffic Analysis

Which of the following tools can be used to determine the hop counts of an IP packet?

Each correct answer represents a complete solution.

Choose two
  • A TRACERT
  • B Ping
  • C IPCONFIG
  • D Netstat
Explanation

TRACERT traces the route to a destination and lists the intermediate router hops. Ping returns TTL information with echo replies, which can be used to determine packet hop behavior. IPCONFIG displays network-interface configuration, and Netstat reports connections and network statistics rather than hop counts.
