A trace route is a tool listing all servers that an IP packet passed through during its journey across the internet.
A utility program that records the route—that is, the specific routers—that data traverses on the Internet between your computer and a specified destination computer. Trace Route helps you to determine the speed of your connection to a remote computer and whether a problem exists on the path to a remote computer.
a method of tracing the route Internet packets will take between your Mac and the remote host. This can be used to determine where a problem lies if you cannot Ping a host. For more information, see the How Trace Route Works section or see the Trace Route Window section.

It also calculates and displays the amount of time each hop took. Traceroute is a handy tool both for understanding where problems are in the Internet network and for getting a detailed sense of the Internet itself.

Trace route is a TCP/IP utility, which allows the user to determine the route packets take to reach a particular host. Trace route works by increasing the "time to live" value of each successive packet sent. The first packet has a time to live (TTL) value of one, the second two, and so on. When a packet passes through a host, the host decrements the TTL value by one and forward the packet to the next host.
