7.4.1 Utility—Monitor/Trace—ISDN/QSIG Protocol Trace
This utility collects protocol trace data from the PRI card, and displays it on the PC.
This option is only available at Installer level in On-line mode, and requires that the target PRI card be set to
INS status.
Protocol trace data is continually accumulated on ISDN cards, and 3 types of data can be downloaded:
•
Real Time Trace: Pseudo-real-time data is collected through data polling at one-second intervals. The
displayed information is updated beginning when the Start button is clicked.
•
Accumulation Trace: Previously accumulated data is retrieved and displayed.
•
Error Accumulation Trace: Previously accumulated error data is retrieved and displayed. This trace
shows the data snapshot that is taken just before a card resets.
