Dear all,
i am using mikrotik Rb951, but i want to change display name of router when i type tracerroute from client.
for example my router displayed as :
1 66.249.95.124 (66.249.95.124) 18.875 ms 18.925 ms 30.072 ms
2 72.14.233.179 (72.14.233.179) 15.752 ms 15.456 ms 15.557 ms
but i want to be displayed of my router like "sin01s04-in-f3.1e100.net + ip "
not “ip + ip”
3 [b] sin01s04-in-f3.1e100.net[/b] (74.125.235.3) 15.206 ms 15.316 ms 15.138 ms
thanks for your help
If there is a DNS record on your DNS server your traceroute will show exactly what it is written there.
For starters, open your hosts file and add a line:
74.125.235.3 sin01s04-in-f3.1e100.net
Next time you start tracert, it will show:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms sin01s04-in-f3.1e100.net [74.125.235.3]
but it will only work for you (your computer)…
did it help?
regards
Ow…thanks so much, i get it. only in DNS can do it?
i have a router HAME (brand), but when i type traceroute to google.com, it showed me the "router name + ip " of my HAME, but i dont change host file in my computer.
Can i do it for mikrotik too? without change the host file on client?
