Question
The Zendesk Customer Support requested a traceroute to investigate my issue. How can I generate a traceroute for troubleshooting?
Answer
A traceroute allows the Zendesk Customer Support to gain additional information about the path your browser takes to get to your Zendesk instance. The team may ask you to generate a traceroute to your instance as well as to the Google website while this issue is occurring. The team uses and compares both traceroutes to further analyze the performance issue.
