How can i set the number of hops ( windows command "-h" parameter ) in the host monitor "trace test" ?
(There is some test based on counting the number of hops?)
Many thanks in advance.

"Number of Hops" option is located in "Options" -> "Ping/Trace options" tab. Quote from the manual:
http://www.ks-soft.net/hostmon.eng/mfra ... #PingTrace
=========================================
Number of Hops
Specify the maximum number of hops to reach the target. This is a measure of the distance between two points on the Internet. A hop count of n means that n gateways separate the source and destination.
=========================================
Beside that, "Trace" test method allows you to use different alert options:
Alert when:
* route was changed - HostMonitor will mark test as "Bad" every time route changed
* number of hops different from NN - Test will change status to "Bad" if number of hops is different from specified
* number of hops greater than NN - Test will change status to "Bad" if number of hops is greater than specified
* number of hops less than NN - Test will change status to "Bad" if number of hops is less than specified
* maximum reply time more than NN milliseconds - Mark test as "Bad" when reply time from any of the hosts is longer than specified
* traffic thru the host - HostMonitor will mark test as "Bad" every time traffic will go thru specified intermediate host
* traffic bypass host - HostMonitor will mark test as "Bad" every time traffic will not go thru specified intermediate host

How can i set the "number of hops" parameter parti
Max,
Thank for your help but i need set the "number of hops" parameter not in a generic way but in an individual way for a determinated test because i'm using the "trace test" with the option "traffic bypass host" and i want test this only in the first three hops and i don't need/want to wait the trace ends. Is it possible?
Newly thanks
