FFT is an alternative traceroute program for displaying the route packets take to an IP network host.
In depth
A closer look at FFT for OSX
Unlike Van Jacobson's traceroute, which is available on almost every platform today, FFT uses TCP in order to elicit ICMP TIME_EXCEEDEDs or TCP_RST.
As a result, FFT often executes much faster and sees behind some configurations of packet- filter based firewalls. FFT has been around since 1998, but this is its first release on Darwin/MacOSX.
