Turns on a trace for a particular VC on an X.25 card.
Parameters |
 |
- dtcnum
Number of the DTC that contains the DTC/X.25 Network
Access card (SNP). This is the number TermDSM associates with this
DTC.
- cardnum
Number of the SNP card within the DTC. The cards
are numbered from zero beginning at the bottom of the DTC. (Note
that SNP cards may not be mounted in slot 0 or 1 for DTC 16, and
slot 0 for DTC 48.)
- traceoption
The trace option allows you to specify the type
of information that you want included in the trace. The options
are 1, to trace VC information; 2, to trace level 2 information;
or 3, to trace level 3 information. The trace options are described
separately on the following pages. Only one trace can be active
at a time.
Use trace option 1 to trace information about a specific VC.
When this trace option is entered, the following prompt is printed
on the terminal:
(carriage return to exit) ?
|
Enter the number of the virtual circuit for which you want
the trace recorded. There can be up to 256 VCs on a DTC48 or DTC
72MX and up to 32 VCs on a DTC16.
You will then see the following prompt at the terminal:
(filter) HDr Header only) FUll (Full Packet) (carriage return to exit) ?
|
Enter HDr if you want only
header information (including TCP/IP headers) included in the trace.
Enter FUll if you want full
packet information included in the trace.
You will then be prompted to enter a trace file name, as follows:
Please enter a filename for the X.25 trace or press carriage return to use the default (TRACE.PUB.SYS). Trace file will be kept in PUB.SYS. (carriage return to accept default) ?
|
Use trace option 2 to trace level 2 information for the specified
SNP card. When this trace option is entered, the following prompt
is printed on the terminal:
(filter) HDr (Header only) FUll (Full Packet) (carriage return to exit) ?
|
Enter HDr if you want only
header information (including TCP/IP headers) included in the trace.
Enter FUll if you want full

You will then be prompted to enter a trace file name, as follows:
Please enter a filename for the X.25 trace or press carriage return to use the default (TRACE.PUB.SYS). Trace file will be kept in PUB.SYS. (carriage return to accept default) ?
|
Use trace option 3 to trace level 3 information for the specified
SNP card. When this trace option is entered, the following prompt
is printed on the terminal:
(VC type for level 3) PAd PAD VCs) SYs (System-to-System VCs) All (PAD and System-to-System VCs) (carriage return to exit) ?
|
Enter PAd to trace PAD VCs
only, enter SYs to trace system-to-system
VCs only, enter All to trace both
PAD and system-to-system VCs.
You will then be asked to enter the link name, as follows:
(linkname) Please enter the linkname for level 3 trace (carriage return to exit) ?
|
Enter the link name of the X.25 link as configured in NMMGR.
The link name may be up to eight (8) ASCII characters.
You will then see the following prompt at the terminal:
(filter) HDr (Header only) FUll (Full Packet) (carriage return to exit) ?
|
Enter HDr if you want only
header information (including TCP/IP headers) included in the trace.
Enter FUll if you want full
packet information included in the trace.
You will then be prompted to enter a trace file name, as follows:
(Filename) Please enter a filename for the X.25 trace or press carriage return to use the default (TRACE.PUB.SYS). Trace file will be kept in PUB.SYS. (carriage return to accept default) ?
