Communications Traces are essentially very much akin to tcpdump or Wireshark on common platforms. It's a multi-step, non-interactive process.
Note: Command are examples and must be tailored to your particular environment!
- Start trace. Network traces are always taken from a line description object.
strcmntrc cfgobj(trnline) cfgtype(*lin) maxstg(16M) usrdta(*max) trcfull(*stoptrc)
- Run your commands for generating traffic.
- Stop trace.
endcmntrc cfgobj(trnline) cfgtype(*lin)
- Format a report from the trace data. Goes to the standard printer queue.
prtcmntrc cfgobj(trnline) cfgtype(*lin) fmttcp(*no) fmtbcd(*no)
- Delete now unneeded Trace Data.
dltcmntrc cfgobj(trnline) cfgtype(*lin)
Optionally, this trace can be exported to a database file, to be e. g. downloaded via FTP for further treatment.
