Diagnostics
• TDM Capture: The TDM log is a copy of the voice data transferred on the T1/E1 line. It is
available only on the DMG2000.
To view a log you must transfer the log to a PC. When transferred to a PC, each log is formatted
into an industry standard to facilitate viewing and sharing of data. The format for each log is:
• Debug Trace Capture: Uses an ASCII text format (.TXT)
Network Capture: Uses an Ethereal format. Ethereal is a freeware program downloadable
•
from the Internet. It is required only to view Network Captures, not to transfer them from the
Media Gateway to a PC.
• TDM Capture: Uses a Wave file format (.wav). Wave format is a standard Windows
and can be opened by programs such as Windows Media Player, Cool Edit and Adobe
Audition. None of these programs are required to transfer the file from the Gateway to a PC,
but one is required to view or playback the file.
9.4.1.1 Control of Log Files:
The control of each log file is independent (i.e. more than one log can be simultaneously created)
and is administered via the Media Gateway's Web interface. You reach the logging pages by using
the Diagnostic Page. The diagnostic Web page is shown in Figure 55.
