Release Information

Statement introduced in Release 8.5 of JUNOS software.

Description

Define Routing Engine firewall authentication tracing options.

This statement is supported on J-series and SRX-series devices.

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 to trace-file.0, then trace-file.1, and so on, until the maximum number of trace files is reached. The oldest archived file is overwritten.
If you specify a maximum number of files, you also must specify a maximum file size with the size option and a filename.
match regular-expression—(Optional) Refine the output to include lines that contain the regular expression.
sizemaximum-file-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 and filename.
world-readable | no-world-readable—(Optional) By default, log files can be accessed only by the user who configures the tracing operation. The world-readable option enables any user to read the file. To explicitly set the default behavior, use the no-world-readable option.
flag flag—Tracing operation to perform. To specify more than one tracing operation, include multiple flag statements. You can include the following flags.
