When I trace the route to a cisco router, it apparently ignores every other
probe packet.  In the example below, Rome and Avignon are two ciscos that
are on the same subnet (131.239.20).  This isn't critical, but I'm curious
whether there's an obvious explanation or it's just a bug.

Rome#trace
Protocol [ip]: 
Target IP address: avignon
Translating "AVIGNON"...domain server (131.239.2.1) [OK]

Source address: 
Numeric display [n]: 
Timeout in seconds [3]: 
Probe count [3]: 10
Minimum Time to Live [1]: 
Maximum Time to Live [30]: 
Port Number [33434]: 
Loose, Strict, Record, Timestamp, Verbose[none]: 
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to AVIGNON.THINK.COM (131.239.20.249)
