Service Update release; it is not necessary to upgrade to a particular Service Update.
1.23 PDK Trace Supports CAS/R2MF/Tone Tracing
With the Service Update, the Dialogic
®
DM3 PDK Protocol Trace (PDK Trace) tool has
new functionality to log CAS, R2MF, and tone-on/tone-off information on supported
boards. Formerly, the DM3 PDK Trace tool only logged SDL state transitions. Also, the tool
for converting the binary output has been enhanced so the R2MF/CAS/tone-on/tone-off
output, like the SDL data, can be converted into a readable format.
Note: See the Dialogic
®
System Software Diagnostics Guide for more information about the
DM3 PDK Protocol Trace tool.
1.23.1 Feature Description
The functionality is enabled by using PDK Trace with a new command line option, -e|E.
This enhanced option enables R2MF tone exchanges (when using R2MF protocol), CAS
signaling changes, and tone-on/tone-off event tracing on supported boards. As with other
PDK options, the new command option produces a default binary log file, pdktrace.log,
which can be converted into readable files by contacting Dialogic technical support. The
converted log is sent back to the user to interpret (see Sample Output Logs).
Enhanced tracing is not affected when a mixed ISDN/CAS configuration is used. As part
of the processing done for tracing, the protocol type (PDK or ISDN) of the given trunk is
queried. If it is a PDK trunk, then CAS, R2MF, and tone-on/tone-off events are traced. If
the trunk is ISDN, tone-on/tone-off events are traced.
Note: For the Dialogic
®
DM/V-B Boards, gc_Open( ) must be called prior to starting enhanced
tracing on a channel. If tracing is started prior to gc_Open( ) being called, PDK protocol
tracing will function, but no CAS/ R2MF/TONE events will be detected.
New Option
Note: See the Dialogic
®
System Software Diagnostics Guide for a complete description of all the
options and instructions for using the PDK Trace tool.
-e
This option enables the R2MF, CAS, and tone-on/tone-off event tracing on supported
boards.
Example:
pdktrace -b0 -i -e / *basic protocol tracing and enhanced tracing
enabled for channel 1 on trunk 1, where 0 is the logical board ID of the destination
board */
