Examples

The following example displays the value of this property.

void ShowTimeExceededData()
{
   IPGlobalProperties ^ properties = IPGlobalProperties::GetIPGlobalProperties();
   IcmpV4Statistics ^ statistics = properties->GetIcmpV4Statistics();
   Console::WriteLine( "  TimeExceeded ........................ Sent: {0,-10}   Received: {1,-10}", 
      statistics->TimeExceededMessagesSent, 
      statistics->TimeExceededMessagesReceived );
}

public static void ShowTimeExceededData()
{
    IPGlobalProperties properties = IPGlobalProperties.GetIPGlobalProperties();
    IcmpV4Statistics statistics = properties.GetIcmpV4Statistics();
    Console.WriteLine("  TimeExceeded ........................ Sent: {0,-10}   Received: {1,-10}",
        statistics.TimeExceededMessagesSent, statistics.TimeExceededMessagesReceived);
}

Public Shared Sub ShowTimeExceededData() 
    Dim properties As IPGlobalProperties = IPGlobalProperties.GetIPGlobalProperties()
    Dim statistics As IcmpV4Statistics = properties.GetIcmpV4Statistics()
    Console.WriteLine("  TimeExceeded ........................ Sent: {0,-10}   Received: {1,-10}", statistics.TimeExceededMessagesSent, statistics.TimeExceededMessagesReceived)

End Sub

Remarks

A packet's Hop Limit determines how many times it can be forwarded before it is discarded. Each time a packet is forwarded, its Hop Limit value is decremented by one. When the Hop Limit reaches zero or when a router receives a packet with its Hop Limit set to zero, the packet is discarded and the source of the packet receives a Time Exceeded message indicating that the initial Hop Limit was too small or that the packet was caught in a routing loop.
