Running Traces

Trace commands enable you to perform diagnostic routines. You can set a trace command
with a keyword, such as authentication or sm, to trace activity for a particular feature, such
as authentication or the session manager.
Caution: Using the set trace command can have adverse effects on system performance.
D-Link recommends that you use the lowest levels possible for initial trace commands, and
slowly increase the levels to get the data you need.
Using the Trace Command
Tracing is used only for debugging MSS. The command set trace area enables you to view
messages about the status of a specific portion of the MSS.
There are many trace parameters that you can run. However, this chapter describes only
authentication, authorization, the session manager (sm), and 802.1X users (dot1x), four
areas that you might find most helpful.
To focus on the object of the trace, you can add one or more of these parameters to the set
trace command:
