Service Traceroute is a tool that allows the discovery of individual application flows paths. Service Traceroute leverages the ideas from paratrace, Sidecar, and 0trace, to passively listen to application traffic to then issue traceroute probes that pretend to be part of the application flow. Service Traceroute extends this idea to work for modern Internet services and support tracing of multiple concurrent TCP flows, as well as for UDP flows. Service Traceroute is available both as command-line tool and library versions.
