Traceroute is more than just hops—this lecture explains how visualizing routing paths reveals ISP-level filtering, CDN nodes, and proxy layers. You’ll learn how to trace and map real-world routing, and use the results to craft better scanning paths or avoid detection.

  • Perform traceroute via Nmap with graphical enhancements

  • Interpret latency, routing behavior, and hidden nodes

  • Use route maps to detect firewalls, black holes, or geo-based filtering
