Trace Record Types
For the typical user wishing to use PTrace to help solve interoperability or application 
program faults, the most useful trace records are the PROV and ASN1 type records 
generated by initiators and responders. They provide displays of the data being 
exchanged between the local and remote systems. The ASN1 records provide only 
information relating to the protocol data units (PDUs) defined in ISO 8571-4. The 
PROV records provide information on all the data that is sent, including provider PDU 
records that contain file data.
