Question:
What is a function of the tracert command that differs from the ping command when they are used on a workstation?

• The tracert command reaches the destination faster.
• The tracert command shows the information of routers in the path.
• The tracert command sends one ICMP message to each hop in the path.
• The tracert command is used to test the connectivity between two devices.

Explanation: The tracert command sends three pings to each hop (router) in the path toward the destination and displays the domain name and IP address of hops from their responses. Because tracert uses the ping command, the travel time is the same as a standalone ping command. The primary function of a standalone ping command is to test the connectivity between two hosts.
