pathping

pathping is the command that Provides information about network latency and network loss at intermediate hops between a source and destination. Pathping sends multiple Echo Request messages to each router between a source and destination over a period of time and then computes results based on the packets returned from each router

C:\>pathping -?

Usage: pathping [-g host-list] [-h maximum_hops] [-i address] [-n]

[-p period] [-q num_queries] [-w timeout]

[-4] [-6] target_name

Options:

-g host-list Loose source route along host-list.

-h maximum_hops Maximum number of hops to search for target.

-i address Use the specified source address.

-n Do not resolve addresses to hostnames.

-p period Wait period milliseconds between pings.

-q num_queries Number of queries per hop.

-w timeout Wait timeout milliseconds for each reply.

-4 Force using IPv4.

-6 Force using IPv6.
