Counting internet hops

[AndrewK990]

Hi All.
I want count traceroute hops. In zabbix_agent i created user parameter, like this:
UserParameter=traceroutehops[*],traceroute -I -n $1 | wc -l. And restart agent. But when i trying to verify is all correct, use zabbix_get utility.

zabbix_get -s 127.0.0.1 -p 10050 -k traceroutehops[google.com]
zabbix_get: No match.

What's wrong?

I tried to repeat your experiment.
Unfortunately, I cannot use key "-I" under zabbix account

#> grep traceroute /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf
UserParameter=traceroutehops[*],traceroute -I -n $1 | grep -v traceroute | wc -l
#> zabbix_get -s localhost -k traceroutehops[google.com]
[B]The specified type of tracerouting is allowed for superuser only
0[/B]

But when I remove keyword "-I", it works.

#> grep traceroute /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf
UserParameter=traceroutehops[*],traceroute  -n $1 | grep -v traceroute | wc -l
#> zabbix_get -s localhost -k traceroutehops[google.com]

BTW, I added "grep -v traceroute" to have only the number of hops, not including the service line

traceroute to google.com (173.194.43.97), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
