Configuration Note 2. Capturing Packets Capturing Packets The MSBR has built-in packet capturing capabilities used for debugging the MSBR and providing an instant overview of current network traffic. Two types of packet capturing can be performed on the MSBR: Physical – on the wire packet capturing ...

Configuration Note 2. Capturing Packets 2.1.3 Debugging Capture Physical using WinSCP Example The following example captures data from the Ethernet interface on the LAN and WAN sides and sends it to the PC using SSH-WINSCP (Windows Secure CoPy) software. To capture physical packets using WinSCP: Activate SSH on MSBR;...
Troubleshooting the MSBR 2.1.4 Capturing Data-CPU on Physical Interface Example This example captures data from the Ethernet interface on the LAN side and sends it to a USB device: # debug capture data physical eth-lan Interface eth-lan was added to the debug capture rules Use start command in order to start the debug capture # debug capture data physical eth-wan Interface eth-wan was added to the debug capture rules...
Configuration Note 2. Capturing Packets Capturing Data on Logical Interfaces The “debug capture data interface” command is used to debug traffic on a specific interface, filtering specific protocols (ICMP/IP/UDP/TCP) and a specific host. You may choose to view the packets on the terminal or upload to TFTP. Use the following command to capture traffic on a logical interface: Table 2-5: Capturing Traffic on Logical Interface Command Command...

Configuration Note 2. Capturing Packets Capturing Voice on Physical Interfaces Voice-CPU has two interfaces: LAN switch VLAN 4001 connected to the Data-CPU: This interface is monitored using the “debug capture data physical eth-lan vlan4001” command. Sometimes you may need to debug or analyze traffic coming from the internal LAN switch directly to the Voice-CPU, by-passing the Data-CPU.
Troubleshooting the MSBR Capturing Voice on Logical Interfaces The “debug capture voip interface” command provides the capability of monitoring specific logical interfaces (e.g. VLANs). The same concept is applied in the “debug capture voip interface” as in the “debug capture data interface”...
RMX refers to the Data-CPU. Debugging Data-CPU There are two methods for debugging Data-CPU: Reviewing serial logs of the last five MSBR runs Enabling direct access to the Data-CPU serial interface without using AudioCodes' proprietary serial cable 3.1.1 Reviewing Serial Logs A cyclic buffer of 50K runs and logs of the MSBR-Data-CPU serial interface is stored.
Troubleshooting the MSBR The Data-CPU log files can be obtained by using either one of the following options: WinSCP USB Storage CLI Commands 3.1.1.1 Obtaining the Data-CPU Log Files using WinSCP The following procedure describes how to obtain the Data-CPU log files using WinSCP. ...
Accessing the Data-CPU Serial Interface Live debugging of Data-CPU sometimes requires direct access to its serial interface. AudioCodes has a proprietary serial cable for direct connectivity of both serial consoles - the yellow and red cable. The “debug rmx-serial tap” command provides the same capability without using any cable.
Configuration Note 4. Resetting History Resetting History This feature provides historical reasons and date/time of the last 20 resets that occurred on the MSBR. This information provides a complete picture of MSBR problems. By looking at the reset history, you can distinguish whether the problem is located in the VoIP-CPU, Data- CPU or there is faulty power cord.
