The sensor will always check the entire way to the given target host. That can't be configured, sorry!

hi

my problem is that the tracert can't be terminated. From setp 5 on it gets only * and nothing else. Because of this i get error.

Unfortunately, not much we can do about it :( The asterisks mean that the hosts on
the route are not responding to the request in a timely manner.
