The trace needs to be run from a computer within your network to an IP or host address of a Pexip edge service. If network equipment is configured to deprioritize ICMP requests this will provide a false positive and not be useful in analyzing the internal network path. The trace should ideally be run from the same VLAN as the video conference equipment to help identify any internal network configuration issues. In most cases, a standard ICMP trace with a larger MTU size (1000-1500 bytes) is required. You will be advised by the Pexip support team member on what type of trace to run.
