Routing Trace Options

Last Updated : Nov 19, 2019 |
Prolog information
This tab provides trace options for monitoring the system's IP data routing events for data and for voice.

Data

The event options under the Data are used to display information pertinent to the IP Routing activities on the system. It provides information on the system’s route cache, routing table, and any RIP updates it receive or transmits.

Events

Option
Description
Route Cache Events
Log information on the current state of the system’s route cache.
Routing Table
Log information on the system’s Routing table.
Routing Table Changes
Log changes made to the system’s Routing Table.
RIP In
Log received RIP packets.
RIP Out
Log transmitted RIP packets.
IGMP
Log IGMP packets.

Voice

The options under the Voice are used to display event information pertinent to the Small Community Networking (SCN) Voice Routing activities on the system. These activities include information on SCN messages sent between Adjacent Nodes, and the actual information contained within those message packets.

Messages

Option
Description
Received AVRIP
Log the received AVRIP messages which are sent every 10 seconds during user activity and stop after 11 when idle. They can be used to check what nodes are active in a network. (If you want to see the actual messages then enable Voice/Packets/AVRIP Tx).
Inter Node
Log general Small Community Networking (SCN) messages which may help in the diagnosis of problem networks.
Remote Node
Log information on the establishment (or breakdown) of remote nodes in a SCN. These messages can be used to check what nodes are active in a network (note that a remote node is 2 or more hops away).
Node Forwarding
Log information about how this node is forwarding information about adjacent nodes to other adjacent nodes. Note that in a star network, the central node receives a large number of forwarding messages.

Packet Contents

An AVRIP packet contains information about the voicemail status of that node and information about what other nodes can be reached (IP address and number of hops and voicemail status). VPN TFTP packets contain information on the nodes of User configuration data, User VoiceMail message counts, extension BLF status, and call information.
Option
Description
AVRIP Tx
Log all transmitted SCN AVRIP packets from the Node being monitored.
AVRIP Rx
Log all received SCN AVRIP packets from Nodes adjacent to the one being monitored.
VPN TFTP Tx
Log all transmitted SCN TFTP packets from the Node being monitored.
VPN TFTP Rx
Log all received SCN TFTP packets from Nodes adjacent to the one being monitored.

Default Settings

None of the trace options are enabled by default. See Defaulting the Trace Options.
