From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Alexander Marx To: development@lists.ipfire.org Subject: [PATCH] traceroute: Update to 2.1 Date: Mon, 05 Sep 2016 08:17:30 +0000 Message-ID: <1473063450-20102-1-git-send-email-alexander.marx@ipfire.org> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============4504855940624066578==" List-Id: --===============4504855940624066578== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable The main significant change is new adaptive algorithm for waiting. Traditional traceroute implementation always waited the whole timeout (defaul= t 5.0 second) for any probe. But if we already have some replies from the same hop, or even from some next= hop, we can use the round trip time of such a reply as a hint to determine t= he actual reasonable amount of time to wait.
