This tab provides trace options for monitoring the system's data network interfaces. An interface can be a physical interface like a LAN port or a configuration interface, like a data connection to a remote system or a Dial-In User.
Packets
The following trace options provide information on either the whole system or on the specific interface specified in the Interface Name field.
Option
Description
Interface Remote
Log traffic tunneled through to any externally connected WAN3 modules.
Interface Queue
Log packets being queued at an interface. Especially useful for determining what packet, and therefore which IP address on the internal network, caused an outgoing data call to be made.
Interface Packets In
Log all packets received.
Interface Packets Out
Log all packets transmitted.
NAT Fail In
Log all NAT (Network Address Translation) packets received that have failed to pass through the firewall.
NAT Fail Out
Log all NAT (Network Address Translation) packets transmitted that have failed to pass through the firewall.
NAT In
Log all NAT (Network Address Translation) packets received.
NAT Out
Log all NAT (Network Address Translation) packets transmitted.
Firewall Allowed In
Log all packets received that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Firewall Allowed Out
Log all packets transmitted that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Firewall Fail In
Log all packets received that have failed to pass through the firewall.
Firewall Fail Out
Log all packets transmitted by the system that have failed to pass through the firewall.
Firewall Generic In
Log all packets received (except UDP, TCP and ICMP) that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Firewall Generic Out
Log all packets transmitted (except UDP, TCP and ICMP) that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Firewall TCP Allowed In
Log all TCP packets received that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Firewall TCP Allowed Out
Log all TCP packets transmitted that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Firewall UDP Allowed In
Log all UDP packets received that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Firewall UDP Allowed Out
Log all UDP packets transmitted that have successfully passed through the firewall.
Interface Name
This option can be used to limit the information shown for the fields above to those associate with a selected service. A blank entry matches all services.
Filters
These options are used in conjunction with the other options on the tab to limit the number of packets displayed or to display packets from a range of devices.
Option
Description
IP Address 1
If set, only packets to and from the IP address are logged.
IP Address 2
If set, this field is used in conjunction with IP Address 1 to display only packets between the pair of addresses.
MAC Address 1
If set, only packets to and from the MAC are logged.
MAC Address 2
If set, this field is used in conjunction with MAC Address 1 to display only packets between the pair of MAC addresses.
TCP
Src Port
Dst Port
UDP
Src Port
Dst Port
Broadcast
If set, this option logs all broadcast packets except ARP broadcasts.
WAN3 chat
This option allows you to filter out the continuous dialogue which takes place between an system's control unit and an associated WAN3 module.
ARP
Log ARP packets.
Multicast
Log MultiCast packets (i.e. packets with either a source or destination address of 224.0.0.0).
Payload Display Size
This option limits the size of the IP packet displayed. Displayed payload can be set to anything between 0 and 1500 bytes. The default setting is 32 bytes.
