: When MTR is started, it investigates the network connection
: between the host MTR runs on and the user-specified destination
: host. Afterwards it determines the address of each network hop
: between the machines and sends a sequence of ICMP echo requests to
: each one to determine the quality of the link to each machine.
: While doing this, it prints running statistics about each machine.
