Visual Trace Route Tool

November 4th, 2008
Visual Trace Tool
  • Have you ever imagine, how are your website URL requests travelling to its host server?
  • What if you know the travelling path of your network packets?
  • Do you want to travel along your network packets?

Exciting! Isn’t?

Recently I came across an interesting online tool which tracks the path of  any URL request path till its destination.

YouGetSignal provides this feature to know about the path of the Internet packets.

youGetSignal says, “The visual trace route tool displays the path Internet packets traverse to reach a specified destination. The tool works by identifying the IP addresses of each hop along the way to the destination network address. The estimated geophysical location of each hop is identified using MaxMind’s GeoIP database. After all of the hops locations’ are identified, the path to the destination is plotted on a Google Map.

Visit YouGetSignal and give any website URL in the Remote Address text box and click on Proxy Trace; you will get the IP packet traverse path.
