--asn=ASnumber or -n ASnumber : limits the measurements to one AS (default is all ASes)

--prefix=IPprefix or -f IPprefix : limits the measurements to one IP prefix (default is all prefixes) WARNING: it must be an *exact* prefix in the global routing table

--probes=N or -s N : selects the probes by giving explicit ID (one ID or a comma-separated list)

--requested=N or -r N : requests N probes (default is 5)

--percentage=X or -p X : stops the program as soon as X % of the probes reported a result (default is 90 %)
