What is the purpose of Traceroute information and how to activate it?
The purpose of traceroute is to identify the problematic server that is causing the error, and that is why we send traceroute info only if there is an error before reaching your servers. Traceroute is a very resource consuming operation and it will slow down your servers a lot if we do it all the time. If you need to execute a single traceroute, go to the “support” section and in the “Test Tools” subsection choose a location, go to the Traceroute test tool and enter the IP of your server. To activate the Traceroute Information option enter the “target” section and click on the “Edit target” icon next to the target you need to configure. In the basic configuration you need to enable the traceroute feature and save the changes.

If you want, you can go to our main page/test tools and enter the IP of your server and select traceroute. This will do a single traceroute. To activate the Traceroute Information option first you have to go to Customize services section www.websitepulse.com/addfeatures.php3 and check the box for Traceroute Information. This will increase your monthly charge with $3 only. Then you go to Monitored Hosts section and for every host from “Edit properties” you will have to enable the “Include Traceroute Information” option.
