Cisco PathTracer MPLS Start and Endpoints
You can open Cisco PathTracer by right-clicking a starting point and entering the required destination
IP address. Table 11-12 lists the Cisco PathTracer starting points.
If you choose the Start Here option, Table 11-13 lists the endpoints that can be selected as path
destinations.
The Cisco PathTracer window is displayed. From this window you can open the Cisco PathTracer details
window with the VPN information displayed in the Layer 2 and Layer 3 tabs.
Note If multiple paths are selected in the paths pane, or if nothing is selected in the paths pane, all available
paths are opened automatically, and each is displayed in a separate Cisco PathTracer window.
