they are used for?

Answer Posted / mayur

traceroute and ping work on the ICMP protocol and are used
for network connectivity testing. but TCPDUMP is different

to capture data and uses it extensive protocol definitions
build inside to analyze the captured packets. Its mainly
used to debug the protocol of the captured packet which in
turn reveals the network traffic characterstics.
