+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility
+uses the IPv6 protocol hop limit field to elicit an ICMPv6 TIME_EXCEEDED
+response from each gateway along the path to some host.
+.Pp
+The only mandatory parameter is the destination host name or IPv6 address.
+The default probe datagram carries 12 bytes of payload,
+in addition to the IPv6 header.
+The size of the payload can be specified by giving a length
+(in bytes)
+after the destination host name.
+.Pp
+Other options are:
+.Bl -tag -width Ds
+.It Fl d
+Debug mode.
+.It Fl f Ar firsthop
+Specify how many hops to skip in trace.
+.It Fl g Ar gateway
+Specify intermediate gateway
+.Nm (
+uses routing header).
+.It Fl I
+Use ICMP6 ECHO instead of UDP datagrams.
+.It Fl l
+Print both host hostnames and numeric addresses.
+Normally
+.Nm
+prints only hostnames if
+.Fl n
+is not specified, and only numeric addresses if
+.Fl n
+is specified.
+.It Fl m Ar hoplimit
+Specify maximum hoplimit, up to 255.
+The default is 30 hops.
+.It Fl n
+Do not resolve numeric address to hostname.
+.It Fl N
+Use a packet with no upper layer header for the probes,
+instead of UDP datagrams.
+.It Fl p Ar port
+Set UDP port number to
+.Ar port .
+.It Fl q Ar probes
+Set the number of probe per hop count to
+.Ar probes .
+.It Fl r
+Bypass the normal routing tables and send directly to a host
+on an attached network.
+If the host is not on a directly-connected network,
+an error is returned.
+This option corresponds to the
+.Dv SO_DONTROUTE
+socket option;
+it can be used to ping a local host through an interface
+that has no route through it
+(e.g., after the interface was dropped by a routing daemon).
+.It Fl s Ar src
+.Ar Src
+specifies the source IPv6 address to be used.
+.It Fl U
+Use UDP datagrams for the probes.
+This is the default.
+.It Fl v
+Be verbose.
+.It Fl w Ar waittime
+Specify the delay time between probes.
+.El
+.Pp
+This program prints the route to the given destination and the round-trip
+time to each gateway, in the same manner as traceroute.
+.Pp
+Here is a list of possible annotations after the round-trip time for each gateway:
+.Bl -hang -offset indent
+.It !N
+Destination Unreachable - No Route to Host.
+.It !P
+Destination Unreachable - Administratively Prohibited.
+.It !S
+Destination Unreachable - Not a Neighbour.
+.It !A
+Destination Unreachable - Address Unreachable.
+.It !\&
+This is printed if the hop limit is <= 1 on a port unreachable message.
+This means that the packet got to the destination,
+but that the reply had a hop limit that was just large enough to
+allow it to get back to the source of the traceroute6.
+This was more interesting in the IPv4 case,
+where some IP stack bugs could be identified by this behaviour.

+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The
+.Nm
+utility will exit with 0 on success, and non-zero on errors.
