Hi there to anyone and everyone,
I am would like to Explore “Source Route” how it works and its possibilities but I don’t seem to get it, can anyone give me a reference with some details of the commands how it works [in Windows]?
What I would like to know if I can do a source route through another computer [meaning not a router].
When I do “Ping –j IPA IPB” I get the following message:
Reply from IP A: Invalid source route specified.
I am aware that most routers will block Source Route that’s why I tried it locally not passing through the router, both IP addresses are “PC’s” and on my network.
(Another question, I am aware that most routers restrict source router or any IP Datagram with options, but is there a difference if the options are completed already before getting to the router or if it the options are still pending because they are set to be done after the router.
Example Datagram with options before getting to the router is if I send “Ping –j IPA IPB” and both IP addresses are on my local network.
Example Datagram with options after going through the router “Ping –j IPA IPB” and IP B is outside my local network and it has to go through the router before getting it).
I would appreciate your input and any help very much.
TIA
Joel
