D-Channel tracing

Andyh10 · **Joined:** Thu Sep 03, 2009 3:25 pm **Posts:** 4

Does anyone know the best way to monitor information that is being received via the NMS card into Teleflow for the D-Channel?

Mainly after where teleflow would collect the ANI and the DNIS from and how using possibly NMS utility agtrace or itrace can check this info.

This would be on a cg6060 card so possibly combination of CGTRACE, AGTRACE, ITRACE and DECTRACE required??

Thanks

What follows is a brief explanation of how to start a D-channel trace.

1. Stop TeleFlow Server
2. Stop the ISDNCTA program - stops the D-channel
3. Start the agtrace to capture the ISDN information: agtrace 801000
4. Start oammon to monitor for errors: oammon
4. Start the D-channel with ISDNCTA
5. Start TeleFlow Server
6. Place one or more test calls
7. Use the NaturalAccess dectrace utility to read the agerror.log

Information on "dectrace" can be found in Chapter 13 of the NMS ISDN Messaging API Developer's Manual

You can use the "itrace" tool to filter the debug messages sent to oammon. See chapter 14 of the NMS ISDN Messaging API Developer's Manual for more information.
