if network_exporter can support the latest functions of mtr about network_exporter HOT 7 OPEN

@syepes Sorry for not describing it clearly, I mean the mtr mode of network_exporter, can it support the tcp protocol and the specified port like the mtr command line tool.

Because we have a scenario where the use of ping is prohibited, but the telnet port can be used. Now I want to test it through mtr. If the port is blocked, which hop route is the problem.

I have encountered the same problem. Do you have a solution?

We need this too. Our network treats ICMP and TCP differently. Especially sometimes packets are routed base on hash(src_ip,src_port,dst_ip,dst_port), however this does not hold for ICMP.

I don't understand what you mean by TCP protocol in relation to MTR, I checked the mentioned exporter and its not doing anything different.
The main difference is that it relies on the externally installed MTR tool, but network_exporter directly implements it in Go without any need of external tools.
