Ping
Tests the reachability of a host or IP address via ICMP echo request and measures round-trip time. Executed from our server.

Traceroute
Displays the network path (all router hops) from our server to a destination host. Useful for diagnosing routing issues and latency along the path.
- All router hops to destination
- RTT per hop
- Max. 15 hops
- Executed from ITworx server
DNS Checker
Checks DNS records for a domain: A, AAAA, MX, TXT, CNAME, NS, SOA and PTR. Helpful for migration checks, e-mail configurations (SPF, DKIM) or nameserver issues.
