A network technician needs to diagnose connectivity issues between their computer and a remote server. They want to analyze the network path and determine where packet loss may be occurring.
Which command-line tool would provide the most detailed information regarding this?
netstat
tracert
ping
pathping
The correct command-line tool for this scenario is pathping, this is because it combines features of both ping and tracert. It not only shows the path to the server but also measures latency and packet loss at each hop along the route. This information is crucial for diagnosing where the connectivity issues may lie.
While traceroute can identify the route packets take, it does not provide the packet loss data that pathping does. Similarly, ping checks connectivity but does not analyze the path or detailed metrics.
