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.
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:
set trace [area] [mac-addr mac-addr] [port port-num] [user username] [level level]
