servlets

hi all...
How to find the trace route through java servlets........ I want the router, switches, hub informations between a client and server.....

the servlet API does not do this.

You could have a servlet doGet() method invoke a system command, that is to call the host's traceroute program and then capture the output of it and return the process output to the html response .

thank u... i tried,
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("tracert address");
BufferedReader input=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(proc.getInputStream()));
String output=null;
String tracert="";
while ((output = input.readLine())!= null)
{
tracert+=output;
out.println(output);
}
it is working............
