You suspect that the failure of a router or of transmission line connecting routers has left some of your important servers unavailable to clients at your site. How could you narrow down the location of this problem?

Run a traceroute, on a win box it's
tracert xx.xx.xx.xx
where xx are the ip addr you want to trace to.
the last ip given on the trace will be the last active hop in the route, if your familiar with the normal route you will know that the device after that hop is where your problem is.

Happy turkey day.
