Linux: Force traceroute to use ICMP and not udp>33000

traceroute -I 1.1.1.1

as usual I recommend -n as well to not have to wait for name resolution of all the intermittent responders in a first step as it slows down a first recognition to detect some ICMP block.

Usually most of the IP addresses have no PTR record in a reverse lookup zone, so you have to use some whois search to locate the owner of the IP.
