Cogent (AS174)

This Looking Glass provides you with information relative to backbone routing and network efficiency, providing you with the same transparency that customers on our network receive directly.

Traceroute allows a user to follow a packet through the network to a specific destination. It shows the domain, IP address, and the roundtrip packet times as it traces the route to the destination.

Ping can be used to show whether or not a device with a valid internet address or domain name can return packets sent to it by a specified server.
