Last Updated : Jul 25, 2024 |

Use the following information to troubleshoot Avaya WebSocket Tunnel(AWTUN) on Branch Session Manager:

  • To view if edge topology is enabled, run smconfig

  • To view AWTUN connection, run statapp. The output displays AWTUN as Tunnel.

  • AWTUN process runs under Linux systemd awtuns.target

  • Target is enabled by edgeSetup.

  • awtuns.target can have up to 2 services. awtun@X.service when X is 1, AWTUN service communicates with the primary System Manager. When X is 2, AWTUN service communicating with the secondary System Manager is optional.

  • awtun@2.service is enabled if System Manager GEO is configured.

  • AWTUN log messages are captured in /var/log/messages

  • To view the AWTUN log messages, run grep awtun /var/log/messages

  • awtun@1.service forwards ports for the loopback IP address 127.0.1.1 to the primary System Manager.

  • awtun@2.service forwards ports for the loopback IP address 127.0.1.2 to the secondary System Manager.

  • To view the port redirection rules, run nft list chain inet nat awtun_redirect

  • To view the current connections to AWTUN, run awtunstat. This utility provides a filtering option. To view the full options, run awtunstat -h
