Layer 2 Traceroute

Use this tool to trace layer 2 network paths between hosts.

Usage is:

  • Enter a hostname or IP address and trace up to its router.
  • Optionally enter a destination hostname or IP address and trace between the two.

The result shows layer 2 (switch) hops as “level L2” and router hops as “level L3”. For each hop incoming and outgoing interface is displayed.
