About:
Trippy is a modern network diagnostic tool that combines the functionality of traceroute and ping into a single, real-time visualization. It leverages the power of ICMP to provide detailed latency statistics and packet loss for each hop along the network path. Its key value proposition is the rich, interactive TUI (Text-based User Interface) that makes diagnosing network issues intuitive and efficient.
|
Key Features:
- Real-time, interactive TUI visualization of network paths
- Support for multiple protocols (ICMP, UDP, TCP) and IP versions (IPv4/IPv6)
- Configurable latency thresholds with color-coded results for easy problem spotting
- Dns lookups with reverse DNS resolution to identify hop names
|
Use Cases:
- Diagnosing high latency or packet loss on a specific network route
- Identifying network bottlenecks between a client and a server
- Troubleshooting intermittent connectivity issues
|
Alternatives:
-
mtr
– The classic tool that inspired Trippy; mtr is ubiquitous but lacks the rich, interactive TUI and advanced configuration of Trippy.
-
traceroute
– Provides a static snapshot of a network path but lacks the continuous monitoring and statistical analysis of Trippy.
