Apologies, I must've missed something that was mentioned in the man pages, in OpenBSD it seems that addresses are printed for each attempt rather than (the other OS' tested, Win, Debian, Android) that seem to take the first returned name for example It just seemed odd as both the man pages on the other os' and OpenBSD state that "three probes (by default) are sent at each ttl setting and a line is printed showing the ttl, address of the gateway and round trip time." It is just the first time I have seen this as other os that I have had experience of show things differently (as below). I don't understand why this "default" wrong behaviour is shown for others but figured this may be useful in the archives for others that don't understand the internet.
