Tracing Operations of an Individual Router Interface

To trace the operations of individual routing platform interfaces, include the traceoptions statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name] hierarchy level:



[edit interfaces interface-name]

traceoptions {
flag flag <disable>;
file filename <files number> <size size> <world-readable |
no-world-readable> <match regexp>;
flag flag <disable>;
}

You can specify the following interface tracing flags:

all—Trace all interface operations.
event—Trace all interface events.
ipc—Trace all interface interprocess communication (IPC) messages.
media—Trace all interface media changes.

The interfaces traceoptions statement does not support a trace file. The logging is done by the kernel, so the tracing information is placed in the system syslog files.
