Description
v_trace is a visual traceroute application that shows* a list of the network servers from your machine to a target ip address or hostname and it attempts to place each to their corresponding location on a map.
The map display consists of a pin for each hop, the color of the pins change from green to red reflecting the latency of the hop.
*The ability to show and determine hops depends on your network's routing policies, if the packets are filtered no hops can be determined.
Ratings and Reviews
Unresolved Detour
This is a pretty straight forward implementation of a visual tracert program for the iPad. The maps are clear and easy to read, if a little plain. The info button used to return to the address list from the map is a bit small and unobtrusive, barely noticeable, but that's an aesthetic choice for the map I guess.
My only gripe is that it seems to map all unresolved addresses, and perhaps some resolved addresses with questionable locations, to a Plum Grove township in Kansas. I think it would be better to just leave unresolved or unknown addresses off the map, or at a previously mapped location if that's not feasible.
Not working any more!
Free version worked for a few days!
Stops after 1 trace!
No longer works
It's not that the trace times out; it never gets started. Retina iPad; latest OS. App used to work. Deleting.
