	tristate "mtr - Full screen ncurses traceroute tool"
	default m if CONFIG_DEVEL
	select BR2_PACKAGE_LIBNCURSES
	help
	 mtr combines the functionality of the 'traceroute' and 'ping' programs
	 in a single network diagnostic tool.
	 .
	 As mtr starts, it investigates the network connection between the host
	 mtr runs on and a user-specified destination host.  After it
	 determines the address of each network hop between the machines,
	 it sends a sequence ICMP ECHO requests to each one to determine the
	 quality of the link to each machine.  As it does this, it prints
	 running statistics about each machine.
