4) Which of the following activities does the Tracert utility perform? (Choose three.)

1. It uses NetBEUI to reduce overhead.
2. It can determine which IP address is being used on the computer that you are using.
3. It can determine how long the packet travels between routers.
4. It can determine which router was the last one the packet passed before failing.
5. It can determine the bandwidth of the connection.
6. It can determine whether the destination is being reached.

The TRACERT command pings every router hop from the source to the destination and reports the round-trip time for each router hop. If the only thing you wanted to find out is whether a host exists, then you would ude the PING command.

Exam Objective: 1.3 Given a scenario, use appropriate command line tools.
