Communications Traces

Communications Traces are essentially very much akin to tcpdump or Wireshark on common platforms. It's a multi-step, non-interactive process.

• 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) sltctld(fiona) fmttcp(*no) fmtbcd(*no)

• Delete now unneeded Trace Data.

dltcmntrc cfgobj(trnline) cfgtype(*lin)
