Using Tracert to Find Out Hop IP Addresses
To find out the IP adresses of hops between the machine running IPCheck and a server you want to monitor run the “tracert (yourservername)” command on the machine running IPCheck:
C:\ >tracert www.paessler.com
Trace route to www.paessler.com [72.3.142.92] with max. 30 hops:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 10.0.0.1
2 2 ms 1 ms 1 ms hp7.paessler.com [81.17.107.145]

Choose one of the hops to monitor. Often it is a good idea to talk to your provider which IP address is a good choice.
