-R ping only. Record route. Includes the RECORD_ROUTE option in
the ECHO_REQUEST packet and displays the route buffer on returned
packets. Note that the IP header is only large enough for nine
such routes. Many hosts ignore or discard this option.
I think "Many" should be replaced with "Most". :-)

In one's lifetime. :)
However, I found something interesting regarding 'iptables'.
Guess what. Procedure which includes 'iptables-save/restore' as
described in "Making changes persistent"[1] doesn't work.
