Viewing A Tracing Level - Cisco ASR1000-RP1 - ASR 1000 Series Route Processor 1 Router Software Configuration Manual

Chapter 13 Tracing and Trace Management
When setting trace levels, it is also important to remember that the setting is not done in a configuration
mode, so trace level settings are returned to their defaults after every router reload.
Setting tracing of a module to the debug level or higher can have a negative performance impact. Setting
Caution
tracing to this level or higher should be done with discretion.
Setting a large number of modules to high tracing levels can severely degrade performance. If a high
Caution
level of tracing is needed in a specific context, it is almost always preferable to set a single module on a
higher tracing level rather than setting multiple modules to high tracing levels.

Viewing a Tracing Level

By default, all modules on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers are set to notice. This setting will be
maintained unless changed by a user.
To see the tracing level for any module on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers, enter the show platform
software trace level command in privileged EXEC or diagnostic mode.
In the following example, the show platform software trace level command is used to view the tracing
levels of the Forwarding Manager processes on the active RP:
Router# show platform software trace level forwarding-manager rp active
