Other ping and traceroute information

Question

Wow! I can't get enough of this traceroute and ping business. My mind hungers for more knowledge. Got any web links where I can read up?

Solution

Sure thing. We've got a few links at the bottom of our table of contents for the tutorial including The Ping Page and The History of Ping. If your dreams are still haunted by visions of ping you can see a ping packet decode here, learn about the inventor of ping (who sadly died in a car accident in November of 2000) and of course visit our How Ping Plotter Works page in the Ping Plotter tutorial.
