<p>When two XMPP users communicate, one or both of them may want to know the status of the XMPP communications path (i.e., of all the hops) between them. While the primary motivation is to determine if all the hops are secured via Transport Layer Security (see &rfc4346;) as specified for XMPP in &rfc3920;, more general information about the communications path may also be of interest.</p>
<p>This document describes a protocol for discovering such information, similar in spirit to the traceroute protocol specified in &rfc1393; but specific to XMPP.</p>
