Release Information

Statement introduced in JUNOS Release 9.0 for EX-series switches.

Description

Define tracing operations for the LLDP protocol.

Default

Tracing operations are disabled.

Options

file filename—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.
files number—(Optional) Maximum number of trace files. When a trace file named trace-file reaches its maximum size, it is renamed trace-file.0, then trace-file.1, and so on, until the maximum xk to specify KB, xm to specify MB, or xg to specify GB number of trace files is reached. Then the oldest trace file is overwritten. If you specify a maximum number of files, you also must specify a maximum file size with the size option.
flag flag—Tracing operation to perform. To specify more than one tracing operation, include multiple flag statements. You can include the following flags:
match regex—(Optional) Refine the output to include lines that contain the regular expression.
no-world-readable—(Optional) Restrict file access to the user who created the 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 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 also must specify a maximum file size with the files option.
world-readable—(Optional) Enable unrestricted file access.
