+Description: Traces the route taken by packets over an IPv4/IPv6 network
+ The traceroute utility displays the route used by IP packets on their way to a
+ specified network (or Internet) host. Traceroute displays the IP number and
+ host name (if possible) of the machines along the route taken by the packets.
+ Traceroute is used as a network debugging tool. If you're having network
+ connectivity problems, traceroute will show you where the trouble is coming
+ from along the route.
+ .
+ Install traceroute if you need a tool for diagnosing network connectivity
+ problems.
