debug dhcp packet buffer
Configures a buffer to capture DHCP packets.
Synopsis debug dhcp packet buffer [circular|linear] [packet-count 64-2056] [vrf vrf-name]
Operands circular Buffer wraps around to overwrite earlier captures.
linear Buffer stops capture when the packet-count value is reached.
packet-count The maximum number of packets that can be captured in the buffer.
Values can be from 64 through 2056. This parameter is necessary when
linear is specified.
64-2056 The range for the maximum number of packets captured in buffer.
vrf vrf-name Specifies the Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instance name mapped
to the VRF ID against which you are capturing DHCP packets. If you do not
specify vrf vrf-name, the buffer will be captured against the default VRF ID
mapped to the vrf-name input.
Defaults The buffer wraps around to overwrite earlier captures (circular).
Command Modes Privileged EXEC mode
Description This command configures the capturing buffer behavior by allowing captures to wrap and
overwrite earlier captures or stop capturing when a packet-count limit is reached. The current
buffer content is cleared when the configuration changes.
Usage Guidelines None
Examples The following example configures a buffer to capture 510 maximum packets in a circular fashion.
sw0# debug dhcp packet buffer circular packet-count 510
