Data moves around the TCP/IP network in the form of IP packets. You use the packet trace facility to diagnose data- and protocol-related problems over the TCP/IP network.
If you are experiencing a problem such as an unexpected disconnection, you can activate IP packet tracing.
Note: This facility can be used with TCPaccess and IBM TCP/IP only. It is not available for Cisco channel cards.
You can trace connections by issuing SmartTrace line commands. Use the PT command to start a trace and the PTI command to stop a trace.
You can also list the started traces from the TCP/IP : Packet Tracing Menu.
When you use packet tracing on the TCP/IP : Telnet Connection List, the packet trace is always performed on the IP address in the Foreign Host column.
If there is no Foreign Host IP address, the packet trace is performed on the local port number (for example, in the case of UDP or Listen entries).
