An open source visual routing tool that pursues light weight, developed using Golang.
NextTrace has a total of 2 versions, the Lite version focusing on lightweight and the Enhanced version which is more enthusiast-oriented.
PS: Our Lite version does not provide OSM based geolocation visualization, we provide this parameter in the enhanced version if needed.
NextTrace 重点在于研究 Go 语言 Traceroute 的实现，其 LeoMoeAPI 的地理位置信息并没有原始数据的支撑，故也不可能有商用版本。
LeoMoeAPI 的数据受到多家数据源的版权限制，仅供路由跟踪地理位置的展示参考使用，我们不对数据提供准度做任何保证，如用于其他用途后果自负，特此告知。
NextTrace focuses on Golang Traceroute implementations, and its LeoMoeAPI geolocation information is not supported by raw data, so a commercial version is not possible.
The LeoMoeAPI data is subject to copyright restrictions from multiple data sources, and is only used for the purpose of displaying the geolocation of route tracing.
# Linux one-click install script
bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sjlleo/nexttrace/main/nt_install.sh)
# macOS brew install command
brew tap xgadget-lab/nexttrace && brew install nexttraceWindows users please go to Release Page directly and download exe file.
Releaseprovides compiled executables for many systems and architectures, if not, you can compile it yourself.- Some of the necessary dependencies of this project are not fully implemented in
GolangonWindows, so currentlyNextTraceis experimental onWindowsplatform.
NextTrace uses the ICMP protocol to perform TraceRoute requests by default, which supports both IPv4 and IPv6
# IPv4 ICMP Trace
nexttrace 1.0.0.1
# Form printing (output all hops at one time, wait 20-40 seconds)
nexttrace -table 1.0.0.1
# IPv6 ICMP Trace
nexttrace 2606:4700:4700::1111NextTrace now supports quick testing, and friends who have a one-time backhaul routing test requirement can use it
# IPv4 ICMP Fast Test (Beijing + Shanghai + Guangzhou + Hangzhou) in China Telecom / Unicom / Mobile / Education Network
nexttrace -f
# You can also use TCP SYN for testing
nexttrace -f -TNextTrace already supports route tracing for specified Network Devices
# Use eth0 network interface
nexttrace -D eth0 2606:4700:4700::1111
# Use eth0 network interface's IP
# When using the network interface's IP for route tracing, note that the IP type to be traced should be the same as network interface's IP type (e.g. both IPv4)
nexttrace -S 204.98.134.56 9.9.9.9NextTrace can also use TCP and UDP protocols to perform Traceroute requests, but these protocols only supports IPv4 now
# TCP SYN Trace
nexttrace -T www.bing.com
# You can specify the port by yourself [here is 443], the default port is 80
nexttrace -T -p 443 1.0.0.1
# UDP Trace
nexttrace -U 1.0.0.1
nexttrace -U -p 53 1.0.0.1NextTrace also supports some advanced functions, such as ttl control, concurrent probe packet count control, mode switching, etc.
# Send 2 probe packets per hop
nexttrace -q 2 www.hkix.net
# No concurrent probe packets, only one probe packet is sent at a time
nexttrace -r 1 www.hkix.net
# Start Trace with TTL of 5, end at TTL of 10
nexttrace -b 5 -m 10 www.decix.net
# Turn off the IP reverse parsing function
nexttrace -n www.bbix.net

nexttrace -report www.time.com.myNextTrace supports users to select their own IP API (currently supports: LeoMoeAPI, IP.SB, IPInfo, IPInsight, IPAPI.com)
# You can specify the IP database by yourself [IP.SB here], if not specified, LeoMoeAPI will be used
nexttrace -d IP.SB
## Note that the ipinfo API needs users to purchase services from ipinfo. If necessary, you can clone this project, add the token provided by ipinfo and compile it yourself
## Fill the token to: ipgeo/tokens.go
## Please be aware: Due to the serious abuse of IP.SB, you will often be not able to query IP data from this source
## IPAPI.com has a stricter restiction on API calls, if you can't query IP data from this source, please try again in a few minutes.NextTrace supports mixed parameters
Example:
nexttrace -d IPInsight -m 20 -p 443 -q 5 -r 20 -rdns 1.1.1.1
nexttrace -T -q 2 -r 1 -table -report 2001:4860:4860::8888We use bgp.tools as a data provider for routing tables.
NextTrace BackEnd is now open-source.

Usage of nexttrace:
'nexttrace [options] <hostname>' or 'nexttrace <hostname> [option...]'
Options:
-T Use TCP SYN for tracerouting (default port is 80)
-U Use UDP Package for tracerouting (default port is 53 in UDP)
-V Print Version
-b int
Set The Begin TTL (default 1)
-d string
Choose IP Geograph Data Provider [LeoMoeAPI, IP.SB, IPInfo, IPInsight, IPAPI.com] (default "LeoMoeAPI")
-f One-Key Fast Traceroute
-m int
Set the max number of hops (max TTL to be reached). (default 30)
-n Disable IP Reverse DNS lookup
-p int
Set SYN Traceroute Port (default 80)
-q int
Set the number of probes per each hop. (default 3)
-r int
Set ParallelRequests number. It should be 1 when there is a multi-routing. (default 18)
-report
Route Path
-table
Output trace results as tableNextTrace Enhanced is an enhanced version for enthusiasts, Enhanced provides trace route calls in the form of Web API and a simple Looking Glass webpage with built-in visualization.
The Enhanced version supports many functions that the lite version does not have, such as the ability to customize the timeout period, and the ability to specify TTL as the starting point for route tracking, etc. For ordinary users, the lite version is usually enough.
