Viewing the Tech-Support Output

To view the Media Flow Controller tech-support output:
•
Web interface—Media Flow Controller Tech Support Report can be downloaded through
the System Config > Tech-Support page.
•
CLI—Run tech-support scp://<URL>. Now you can access the tech-support output at
the specified system, move it (if needed) and view its contents. See
page 30
nkn_tech-support. We highly recommend that, if you have multiple Media Flow
Controllers, each Media Flow Controller be configured with a different path variable (use a
different directory) so that tech-support data from one Media Flow Controller does not
overwrite data from another; if different hosts are used for each Media Flow Controller,
then the same path name can be used.

Trace Log (tracelog)

Media Flow Controller includes a delivery trace facility to help diagnose the handling of a
particular HTTP request. See
copy <SCP>
filename <name>
on-the-hour {disable | enable}
rotate {filesize-MB <integer> | time-interval <integer>}
syslog replicate {disable | enable}
The tracing is done by logging trace points of internal steps (for example, namespace lookup,
cache lookup, and so forth). A request is traced if the following conditions are true:
•
The global trace flag is enabled via the CLI:
delivery protocol http trace enable
•
The HTTP request includes the X-NKN-Trace header; for example if using Wget:
wget --header "X-NKN-Trace:" <URL>
The HTTP modules detect the above conditions and set the flag "HRF_TRACE_REQUEST"
as well as other flags that direct each relevant module to log meaningful trace points. The
for the scp URL format and requirements. The file is created with the name
