Package: traceroute-nanog Version: 6.3.10-2 Tags: patch Severity: wishlist
Graeme Hewson has submitted two patches to Ubuntu to address issues found with traceroute-nanog. Please find attached the following two dpatch files generated from the submitted patches: 30_respect-prohibition.dpatch If traceroute receives ICMP type 3 code 9 or 10 (communication with destination network or host administratively prohibited), the trace doesn't finish and further probes are sent. 40_workaround-RFC_792-noncompliance.dpatch Some hops aren't reported because the hosts don't follow the RFC properly and the checking of the ICMP time exceeded packets for validity is (arguably) too strict. I have been advised that the second patch has been accepted upstream, but am unaware of the status of the first patch. -- Emmet HIKORY
