# Human-readable path traces

Assuming a structured configuration with derived interface IPs, this tool can convert IP(v6) interfaces to human readable device/interface names.

So instead of:

```

1.1.0.1 -> 10.1.0.1 -> 10.1.1.1 -> 1.1.0.2

```

one would get

```

leaf1(1.1.0.1) -> leaf1.e1-1 -> leaf2.e1-2 -> leaf2(1.1.0.2)

```
