I am working on a project and I would like to put together a network map
from
my pc  to a site in vancouver, canada. I did a "tracert" and I got the
following:

-----------------------------
C:\WINDOWS>tracert www.ubc.ca

--------------------------------------------

How do I find the subnet masks at these sites. For example, I see
network 146.188 (class B) but I am not sure
how to interpret the last two bytes into subnet and host id field. Also,
I noticed that hop number 3's network
(137.39) and hop 10's network (137.39) are the same. If they are the
same, why did hop 3 did not route
it to hop 10 directly rather than going through the network (146.188) ?

Any help would be appreciated. You can post here or e-mail me at
"virs@earthlink.net".

No flames please ....

Thanks,
