Network diagnostic utility that tracks the path taken by packets across IP networks, measuring transit delays across intermediate hops.
A standard NETWORKING utility used across offensive reconnaissance, packet forensics, and defensive system administration.
Direct visibility into network interfaces, protocol frames, access controls, or filesystem structures without graphical overhead.
During live system triage, initial reconnaissance, forensic capture inspection, or baseline configuration auditing.
