Description
Enabling tracing can adversely impact scale and performance and may increase security risk. We strongly recommend using the trace, tracing, or traceoptions commands only under the guidance of a JTAC support engineer. After collecting the debug information, immediately disable tracing to minimize risk and restore normal system performance.
Configure tracing options for the general authentication service.
Options
file filename—Name of the file to receive the output of the tracing operation.
All files are placed in the directory /var/log.
files number—(Optional)
Maximum number of trace files to create before overwriting the oldest
one. If you specify a maximum number of files, you also must specify
a maximum file size with the size option.
Range: 2 through 1000
Default: 3 files
filter—Additional filter to refine the
output to display particular subscribers. Filtering based on the following
subscriber identifier simplifies troubleshooting in a scaled environment.
useruser@domain—Username of a subscriber. Optionally use an asterisk (*) as a wildcard to substitute for characters at the beginning or end of either term or both terms.
flag flag—Tracing operation
to perform. To specify more than one tracing operation, include multiple flag statements. You can include the following flags:
address-assignment—Trace address-assignment pool eventsall—Trace all tracing operationsconfiguration—Trace configuration eventsframework—Trace authentication framework eventsgx-plus—Trace Gx-Plus eventsjsrc—Trace JSRC eventsldap—Trace LDAP authentication eventslocal-authentication—Trace local authentication eventsradius—Trace RADIUS authentication eventsuser-access—Trace user access events, such as login, logout, and authenticate.
match regular-expression—(Optional)
Refine the output to include lines that contain the regular expression.
no-remote-trace—Disable remote tracing.
no-world-readable—(Optional) Disable unrestricted
file access.
size maximum-file-size—(Optional)
Maximum size of each trace file. By default, the number entered is
treated as bytes. Alternatively, you can include a suffix to the number
to indicate kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), or gigabytes (GB). If
you specify a maximum file size, you also must specify a maximum number
of trace files with the files option.
Syntax:

Range: 10240 through 1073741824
Default: 128 KB
world-readable—(Optional) Enable unrestricted
file access.
