GeoTCPTrace is a collection of system network administrator utilities embedded in your IPhone/IPod Touch device. GeoTCPTrace is a System Administrator Swiss Knife!
GeoTCPTrace embed the following utilities:

1) IP Geo Localization
2) Host Ping
3) Check Host Connection on the fly
4) Traceroute
5) Programmable Server Services Monitoring

The IP Geo Localization: You can retrieve information about a public IPv4 address (Country, Location, City, Latitude,Longitude). The service uses a local database (you dont need an internet connection for this) that contains advanced geo-location information. Geolocation information can help you localize content, serve relevant local advertisements, offer a download mirror close to visitors, and detect online fraud. Techniques like whois lookup of IP addresses are of some help, but they dont always find accurate locations. A better approach is a database that maps each IP address to a location. Our GeoIP databases are 99.8% accurate on a country level, 90% accurate on a state level, and 83% accurate for the US within a 25 mile radius.

Ping Host: The classic ICMP echo request/reply.

Check Host Connection on the fly: You can check on the fly for a generic TCP connection service.

Traceroute: is a computer network tool used to show the route taken by packets across an IP network. You can find a lot of geo-location information (if available) for each IPv4 address.

Programmable Server Services Monitoring: This is the best feature. You can check services for an unlimited number of hosts. The service detects all connection issue about the service and sends you a visible notification (Host icon change and device vibration). The monitoring process count all service failure (useful to investigate alternate service up/down troubles). The monitoring can check all TCP service and moreover you can configure a single timer check for each service. There are a lot of planned services:

SMTP Services
POP Services
IMAP Services
HTTP Services(Level 7)
SSH Services
SMB Services
FTP Services(Level 7)
