Traceroute stops on the device where it has a NIC to the destination

Roger PeiAug 16 2018 — edited Aug 18 2018

Hi Experts,

Need your help on explaining on how traceroute should work, or whether it sounds normal.

When I run the traceroute command on the source, it stops at the device which is last one before the destination.

traceroute to "Destination IP" (Destination IP) from Source IP, 64 hops max, 40 byte packets

1  Point-1 (Point-1 IP)  0.409 ms  0.464 ms  0.301 ms

2  Point-2 (Point-2 IP,105 subnet)  0.232 ms  0.293 ms  0.293 ms

3  * * *

Traceroute stops at the point-2, and at the NIC with 105 subnet.

The point-2 has multiple NIC's, and the other NIC's is located in the same subnet as where the destination is located, "72" subnet.

Is there any thing wrong in terms of routing between the source to the destination("72" subnet)? How come "traceroute" command did not show me the last point, which is the destination IP?
