scapy traceroute



Traceroute often used to discover path to destination when packets hops from router to router.  It sends a short live packet out and then waits for ICMP response. Repeating and incrementing TTL each time until a destination is reached.

Traceroute comes in different flavours :

a) Tcp trace route - Is becoming more popular because TCP are not block by network administrator. Sometimes when UDP used, it ends up to firewall and stops there. If TCP is used, it would make a step further.

b) Intrace - Still reading up on this.

c) Traceroute - normally traceroute uses UDP on Linux and ICMP on Windows.

The specified initialization vector (IV) does not match the block size for this algorithm

If you're getting  exception when trying to assigned key to a symmetric key and getting error message below :- The specified initialization vector (IV) does not match the block size for this algorithm And your code probably look like something below :- Then you need to go into debug mode and start looking into the supported size for IV as shown in diagram below :- As you can see, IV is 16 bytes, so you need to provide 16 bytes. The same goes for Key field too, if you're adding anything to it. As long as you provide a valid key size, then we're good and you're code will be ready.
