In IP NW, Pkt goes hop by hop and finally reaches its destination. commands to find the path are as below...
1. tracert <IP v4 Address>
2. traceroute ipv62001:db8:349e:a384::34
Other variants can be selection of the pkt size, host name resolution for the path over which pkt traversed.
Using “tracert” command lets you see the path travelled by a packet to its destination.
Trace route is also very imp to fine the hops, on which path packet is forwarding
Send a ping to the destination ip, that will confirm if the packet reaches the desired path or failed
