traceoptions (Protocols BMP)

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Configure tracing options for BMP monitoring. To specify more than one tracing operation, include multiple flag statements.

Options

file file-name—Name of the file to receive the output of the tracing operation. Enclose the name within quotation marks. All files are placed in the directory /var/log. We recommend that you place BMP tracing output in the file bmp-log.

files number—(Optional) Maximum number of trace files. When a trace file named trace-file.0 reaches its maximum size, it is renamed trace-file.0, then trace-file.1, and so on, until the maximum number of trace files is reached. Then, the oldest trace file is overwritten. If you specify a maximum number of files, you must also specify a maximum file size with the size option.

  • Range: 2 through 1000 files

  • Default: 10 files

flag—Tracing operation to perform. To specify more than one tracing operation, include multiple flag statements.

  • all—Trace all BMP monitoring operations.

  • down—Down messages.

  • error—Error conditions.

  • event—Major events, station establishment, errors, and events.

  • general—General events.

  • normal—Normal events.

  • packets—All messages.

  • policy—Policy processing.

  • route—Routing information.

  • route-monitoring—Route monitoring messages.

  • state—State transitions.

  • statistics—Statistics messages.

  • task—Routing protocol task processing.

  • timer—Routing protocol timer processing.

  • up—Up messages.

  • write—Writing of messages.

flag-modifier—(Optional) Modifier for the tracing flag. You can specify one or more of these modifiers:

  • detail—Provide detailed trace information.

  • disable—Disable the tracing flag.

  • receive—Trace the packets being received.

  • send—Trace the packets being transmitted.

no-world-readable—(Optional) Prevent any user from reading the log file.

size size—(Optional) Maximum size of each trace file, in kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), or gigabytes (GB). When a trace file named trace-file reaches this size, it is renamed trace-file.0. When the trace-file again reaches its maximum size, trace-file.0 is renamed trace-file.1 and trace-file is renamed trace-file.0. This renaming scheme continues until the maximum number of trace files is reached. Then, the oldest trace file is overwritten. If you specify a maximum file size, you also must specify a maximum number of trace files with the files option.

  • Syntax: xk to specify KB, xm to specify MB, or xg to specify GB

  • Range: 10 KB through the maximum file size supported on your system

  • Default: 128 KB

world-readable—(Optional) Allow any user to read the log file.
