Chapter 10 - Using The CLI Shell
Starting The Trace
The trace is be started by entering “trace<CR>”. All historical trace messages will
be displayed. Since this may include many messages it may be more desirable to
use the “trace clear<CR>” command instead. This command will automatically
clear the trace buffer as it starts the trace.
Note:
It is very useful to enable link changes when testing some protocols such as STP. The
trace package automatically resets the “seconds” timestamp when a link rises. This makes it
convenient to “zero in” on the actions taken immediately after a link becomes active.

Note:
The trace package includes the “forward” subsystem, a remote reporting facility intended
to be used only under the direction of RuggedCom service personnel.

Viewing DHCP Learned Information Using Ipconfig
The CLI command “ipconfig” will provide the current IP address, subnet mask
and default gateway. This command provides the only way of determining these
values when DHCP is used.
