Trace - How to get internal trace from 2N® BRI Lite / 2N® BRI Enterprise?


Web interface -  short trace, just few calls

The internal trace can be run via menu Utils -> Report capture. Check in Gateway -> Gateway configuration -> Report configuration that all fields are enabled.

Online view for the internal trace is shown in menu Gateway -> Gateway control -> Online report.

Telnet client - long trace, "unlimited"

In BRI Configuration tool (for older M114 and M115 CPU)

Telnet client - long trace, "unlimited"

The web interface can store up to 512kB long trace. Telnet client allows to use your computer as a storage for a longer trace.

Bellow you can find instructions for application Putty. You can also use other telnet capable applications.

Putty (www.putty.org)

  1. Download and run Putty.
  2. Choose Telnet in Connection type and fill in 2N® BRI Lite / 2N® BRI Enterprise's IP address.
  3. In Menu Session -> Logging, select Session logging: All session output and choose a file where the trace capture will be saved to.

  4. Establish connection with your gateway and fill login.

    5. To set the right tracing characteristics use following commands.
        AT%X91=3F,3,0                  - for full calls tracing (including LCR)

        AT%X92=7,0                       - for full SMS tracing

        AT%X92=0,7                       - for full SMPP tracing

        AT%X92=7,7                       - for full SMPP and SMS tracing

        Combination of commands AT%X91=3F,3,0 and AT%X92=7,7 sets FULL 

        tracing.

    6. Use command AT&S. This information is summary about status of 

        inserted cards and modules.

    7. Use the command ATI3 and ATI4. Those commands provides information about

        your gateway and installed licenses.

    8. Optional: If we request module restart then do AT&GALL=RESET.

    9. To start tracing write command    AT!RP
    If you get BUSY response, run AT!RX first. This command clears previously incorrectly ended trace.

    5. To set the right tracing characteristics write the command.
         AT%S92=31
         This command sets FULL tracing.

    6. Use command AT&S. This information is summary about status of

        inserted cards and modules.

    7. Use the command ATI3 and ATI4. This information is about your

        gateway and licenses.

    8. Optional: If we request module restart then do AT&GALL=RESET.

    9. To start tracing write command
        AT!R2

    If you get BUSY response, run AT!RX first. This command clears previously not correctly ended trace.


      10. Now you can make test calls and other needed tests.

      11. Pack the created trace file and send it to us via email with following information:

  • the description of numbers you tried to dial / send sms to
  • reported issues
  • desired scenario details (what do you need to achieve - such as routing specific numbers to different modules/SIM cards, etc...).

In BRI Configuration tool (for older M114 and M115 CPU)

Connect with BRI configuration tool to the gateway (over serial communication or LAN)

Go to Gateway control -> Tracing

Set details of the tracing:

  • select all check boxes (it will set the level of trace)
  • select tracing: FULL tracing
  • choose Layers 2,3,4

Click on the button choosing (creating) the file to which the trace will be saved

Click the button Start. When trace is done, press Stop and text of the trace will be saved in file which you set above.
