PTrace and Trace Analysis
CONTROL request is in P4 (in the range P1-6, the fourth word): Control 11
(%000013):
When troubleshooting an OSI/TS subsystem using X25AM, you seldom need to look at
more than the SELECT L3 mask. This mask causes all the packets to be displayed,
along with most of the attributes related to the connection. The following example
shows a trace of a call request packet to subdevice number 0 (SDN #000):
To further analyze L3 packets, you can use the following commands:
FILTER CALL
FILTER CLEAR
These commands display all the call and clear packets sent and received.
The following command limits the display to a specific subdevice:
FILTER SDN name
The following command limits the display to a specific logical channel number (an X.25
circuit):
FILTER LCN circuit-number
You can use the SELECT L2 mask to determine the LAPB information frames
transmitted to and from the Data Link Layer. The following commands omit all the RR
frames, thus reducing the display:
SELECT L2
FILTER NOTRR
