Configuring the Trace Operations

By default, only important events are logged. You can configure the trace operations to be logged by including the following statements at the [edit event-options traceoptions] hierarchy level:

[edit event-options traceoptions]

flag {

    all;

    configuration;

    events;

    database;

    policy;

    server;

    timer-events;

}

Table 18 describes the meaning of the event policy tracing flags.
