Description
Trace traffic flowing through a Layer 2 VPN.
Options
disable—(Optional) Disable
the tracing operation. You can use this option to disable a single
operation when you have defined a broad group of tracing operations,
such as all.
file filename—Name of
the file to receive the output of the tracing operation. Enclose the
name in quotation marks (" ").
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 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.
Range: 2 through 1000 files
Default: 2 files
flag flag—Tracing
operation to perform. To specify more than one tracing operation,
include multiple flag statements.
all—All Layer 2 VPN tracing optionsconnections—Layer 2 connections (events and state changes)error—Error conditionsgeneral—General eventsnlri—Layer 2 advertisements received or sent by means of the BGPnormal—Normal eventspolicy—Policy processing
route—Routing informationstate—State transitionstask—Routing protocol task processingtimer—Routing protocol timer processingtopology—Layer 2 VPN topology changes caused by reconfiguration or advertisements received from other PE routers using BGP
flag-modifier—(Optional)
Modifier for the tracing flag. You can specify the following modifier:
detail—Provide detailed trace informationreceive—Trace received packetssend—Trace transmitted packets
no-world-readable—(Optional) Prevents any user
from reading the trace 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 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.
