This chapter contains an alphabetical listing of the debug commands and their descriptions. Documentation for each command includes a brief description of its use, command syntax, usage guidelines, sample output, and a description of that output.
Output formats vary with each debug command. Some commands generate a single line of output per packet, whereas others generate multiple lines of output per packet. Some generate large amounts of output; others generate only occasional output. Some generate lines of text, and others generate information in field format. Thus, the way debug command output is documented also varies. For example, the output for debug commands that generate lines of text is usually described line by line, and the output for debug commands that generate information in field format is usually described in tables.
By default, the network server sends the output from the debug commands to the console terminal. Sending output to a terminal (virtual console) produces less overhead than sending it to the console. Use the privileged EXEC command terminal monitor to send output to a terminal. For more information about redirecting output, see the "Using Debug Commands" chapter.
Use the debug aaa accounting EXEC command to display information on accountable events as they occur. Use the no form of the command to disable debugging output.
[no] debug aaa accountingThe information displayed by the debug aaa accounting command is independent of the accounting protocol used to transfer the accounting information to a server. Use the debug tacacs and debug radius protocol specific commands to get more detailed information about protocol-level issues.
Figure 2-1 shows sample output from the debug aaa accounting command.

Use the debug aaa authentication EXEC command to display information on AAA/Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus (TACACS+) authentication. Use the no form of the command to disable debugging output.
[no] debug aaa authenticationUse this command to see what methods of authentication are being used and what the results of these methods are.
Figure 2-2 shows sample debug aaa authentication output. A single EXEC login that uses the "default" method list and the first method, TACACS+, is displayed. The TACACS+ server sends a GETUSER request to prompt for the username and then a GETPASS request to prompt for the password, and finally a PASS response to indicate a successful login. The number 50996740 is the session ID, which is unique for each authentication. Use this ID number to distinguish between different authentications if several are occurring concurrently.

Use the debug aaa authorization EXEC command to display information on AAA/TACACS+ authorization. Use the no form of the command to disable debugging output.
[no] debug aaa authorizationUse this command to see what methods of authorization are being used and what the results of these methods are.
Figure 2-3 shows sample debug aaa authorization output. In this display, an EXEC authorization for user "carrel" is performed. On the first line, the username is authorized. On the second and third lines, the AV (attribute value) pairs are authorized. The debug output displays a line for each attribute value pair that is authenticated. Next, the display indicates the authorization method used. The final line in the display indicates the status of the authorization process, in this case, a failure.
Router# debug aaa authorization

2:23:21: AAA/AUTHOR (0): send AV service=shell
2:23:21: AAA/AUTHOR (0): send AV cmd*

2:23:21: AAA/AUTHOR/TAC+ (342885561): send AV cmd*
2:23:21: AAA/AUTHOR (342885561): Post authorization status = FAIL
The aaa authorization command causes a request packet containing a series of attribute value pairs to be sent to the TACACS daemon as part of the authorization process. The daemon responds in one of the following three ways:
Table 2-1 describes attribute value pairs associated with the aaa authorization command that may show up in the debug output.
| Attribute Value | Description |
|---|---|
| service=arap | Authorization for AppleTalk Remote Access is being requested. |
| service=shell | Authorization for EXEC startup and command authorization is being requested. |
| service=ppp | Authorization for PPP is being requested. |
| service=slip | Authorization for SLIP is being requested. |
| protocol=lcp | Authorization for LCP is being requested (lower layer of PPP). |
| protocol=ip | Used with service=slip and service=slip to indicate which protocol layer is being authorized. |

| addr=x | Used with service=slip, service=ppp, and protocol=ip. Contains the IP address that the remote host should use when connecting via SLIP or PPP/IP. For example, addr=172.30.23.11. |
| routing=x | Used with service=slip, service=ppp, and protocol=ip. Equivalent in function to the /routing flag in SLIP and PPP commands. Can either be true or false. For example, routing=true. |
| timeout=x | Used with service=arap. The number of minutes before an ARA session disconnects. For example, timeout=60. |

| priv-lvl=x | Used with service=shell and cmd=NULL. Specifies the current privilege level for command authorization as a number from 0 to 15. For example, priv-lvl=15. |
| zonelist=x | Used with service=arap. Specifies an AppleTalk zonelist for ARA. For example, zonelist=5. |
| addr-pool=x | Used with service=ppp and protocol=ip. Specifies the name of a local pool from which to get the address of the remote host. |
Use the debug apple arp EXEC command to enable debugging of the AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol (AARP). The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug apple arp [type number]| type | (Optional) Interface type. |
| number | (Optional) Interface number. |
This command is helpful when you experience problems communicating with a node on the network you control (a neighbor). If the debug apple arp display indicates that the router is receiving AARP probes, you can assume that the problem does not reside at the physical layer.
Figure 2-4 shows sample debug apple arp output.

Use the debug apple domain EXEC command to enable debugging of the AppleTalk domain activities. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug apple domainUse the debug apple domain command to observe activity for domains and subdomains. Use this command in conjunction with the debug apple remap command to observe interaction between remapping and domain activity. Messages are displayed when the state of a domain changes, such as creating a new domain, deleting a domain, and updating a domain.
Figure 2-5 shows sample debug apple domain output intermixed with output from the debug apple remap command; the two commands show related events.

Use the debug apple eigrp-all EXEC command to enable debugging output from the Enhanced IGRP routines. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug apple eigrp-allThe debug apple eigrp-all command can be used to monitor acquisition of routes, aging route table entries, and advertisement of known routes through Enhanced IGRP.
![]() | Caution Because the debug apple eigrp-all command can generate many messages, use it only when the router's CPU utilization is less than 50 percent. |
Figure 2-6 shows sample debug apple eigrp-all output.

Table 2-2 describes the fields in the output shown in Figure 2-6.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| atigrp2_router: | The neighbor's AppleTalk address. |
| AT: | Indicates that this is an AppleTalk packet. |
| Ethernet2: | Name of the interface through which the router received the packet. |
| src= | Name of the interface sending the Enhanced IGRP packet, as well at its AppleTalk address. |
| dst= | Cable range of the packet's destination. |
| size= | Size of the packet (in bytes). |
Use the debug apple errors EXEC command to display errors occurring in the AppleTalk network. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug apple errors [type number]| type | (Optional) Interface type. |
| number | (Optional) Interface number. |
In a stable AppleTalk network, the debug apple errors command produces little output.
To solve encapsulation problems, enable debug apple errors and debug apple packet together.
Figure 2-7 shows sample debug apple errors output when a router is brought up with a zone that does not agree with the zone list of other routers on the network.
Router# debug apple errors
%AT-3-ZONEDISAGREES: Ethernet0: AppleTalk port disabled; zone list incompatible with 4160.19
%AT-3-ZONEDISAGREES: Ethernet0: AppleTalk port disabled; zone list incompatible with 4160.19
%AT-3-ZONEDISAGREES: Ethernet0: AppleTalk port disabled; zone list incompatible with 4160.19
As Figure 2-7 suggests, a single error message indicates zone list incompatibility; this message is sent out periodically until the condition is corrected or debug apple errors is turned off.
Most of the other messages that debug apple errors can generate are obscure or indicate a serious problem with the AppleTalk network. Some of these other messages follow.
In the following message, RTMPRsp, RTMPReq, ATP, AEP, ZIP, ADSP, or SNMP could replace NBP, and "llap dest not for us" could replace "wrong encapsulation":
Packet discarded, src 4160.12-254,dst 4160.19-254,NBP,wrong encapsulation
In the following message, in addition to invalid echo packet, other possible errors are unsolicited AEP echo reply, unknown echo function, invalid ping packet, unknown ping function, and bad responder packet type:
Ethernet0: AppleTalk packet error; no source address available AT: pak_reply: dubious reply creation, dst 4160.19 AT: Unable to get a buffer for reply to 4160.19 Processing error, src 4160.12-254,dst 4160.19-254,AEP, invalid echo packet
The debug apple errors command can print out additional messages when other debugging commands are also turned on. When you turn on both debug apple errors and debug apple events, the following message can be generated:
Proc err, src 4160.12-254,dst 4160.19-254,ZIP,NetInfo Reply format is invalid
In the preceding message, in addition to NetInfo Reply format is invalid, other possible errors are NetInfoReply not for me, NetInfoReply ignored, NetInfoReply for operational net ignored, NetInfoReply from invalid port, unexpected NetInfoReply ignored, cannot establish primary zone, no primary has been set up, primary zone invalid, net information mismatch, multicast mismatch, and zones disagree.
When you turn on both debug apple errors and debug apple nbp, the following message can be generated:
Processing error,...,NBP,NBP name invalid
In the preceding message, in addition to NBP name invalid, other possible errors are NBP type invalid, NBP zone invalid, not operational, error handling brrq, error handling proxy, NBP fwdreq unexpected, No route to srcnet, Proxy to "*" zone, Zone "*" from extended net, No zone info for "*", and NBP zone unknown.
When you turn on both debug apple errors and debug apple routing, the following message can be generated:
Processing error,...,RTMPReq, unknown RTMP request
In the preceding message, in addition to unknown RTMP request, other possible errors are RTMP packet header bad, RTMP cable mismatch, routed RTMP data, RTMP bad tuple, and Not Req or Rsp.
Use the debug apple events EXEC command to display information about AppleTalk special events, neighbors becoming reachable/unreachable, and interfaces going up/down. Only significant events (for example, neighbor and route changes) are logged. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug apple events [type number]| type | (Optional) Interface type. |
| number | (Optional) Interface number. |
The debug apple events command is useful for solving AppleTalk network problems because it provides an overall picture of the stability of the network. In a stable network, the debug apple events command does not return any information. If the command generates numerous messages, those messages can indicate possible sources of the problems.
When configuring or making changes to a router or interface for AppleTalk, enable debug apple events. Doing so alerts you to the progress of the changes or to any errors that might result. Also use this command periodically when you suspect network problems.
The debug apple events command is also useful to determine whether network flapping (nodes toggling online and offline) is occurring. If flapping is excessive, look for routers that only support 254 networks.
When you enable debug apple events, you will see any messages that the configuration command apple event-logging normally displays. Turning on debug apple events, however, does not cause apple event-logging to be maintained in nonvolatile memory. Only turning on apple event-logging explicitly stores it in nonvolatile memory. Furthermore, if apple event-logging is already enabled, turning on or off debug apple events does not affect apple event-logging.
Figure 2-8 shows sample debug apple events output that describes a nonseed router coming up in discovery mode.

As Figure 2-8 shows, the debug apple events command is useful in tracking the discovery mode state changes through which an interface progresses. When no problems are encountered, the state changes progress as follows:
Explanations for individual lines of output in Figure 2-8 follow.
The following message indicates that a port is set. In this case, the zone multicast address is being reset.
Ether0: AT: Resetting interface address filters
The following messages indicate that the router is changing to restarting mode:
%AT-5-INTRESTART: Ether0: AppleTalk port restarting; protocol restarted Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; unknown -> restarting
The following message indicates that the router is probing in the startup range of network numbers (65280-65534) to discover its network number:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; restarting -> probing
The following message indicates that the router is enabled as a nonrouting node using a provisional network number within its startup range of network numbers. This type of message only appears if the network address the router will use differs from its configured address. This is always the case for a discovery-enabled router; it is rarely the case for a nondiscovery-enabled router.
%AT-6-ADDRUSED: Ether0: AppleTalk node up; using address 65401.148
The following messages indicate that the router is sending out GetNetInfo requests to discover the default zone name and the actual network number range in which its network number can be chosen:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; probing -> acquiring %AT-6-ACQUIREMODE: Ether0: AT port initializing; acquiring net configuration
Now that the router has acquired the cable configuration information, the following message indicates that it restarts using that information:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; acquiring -> restarting
The following messages indicate that the router is probing for its actual network address:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; restarting -> line down Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; line down -> restarting Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; restarting -> probing
The following message indicates that the router has found an actual network address to use:
%AT-6-ADDRUSED: Ether0: AppleTalk node up; using address 4160.148
The following messages indicate that the router is sending out GetNetInfo requests to verify the default zone name and the actual network number range from which its network number can be chosen:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; probing -> acquiring %AT-6-ACQUIREMODE: Ether0: AT port initializing; acquiring net configuration
The following message indicates that the router is requesting the list of zones for its cable:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; acquiring -> requesting zones
The following messages indicate that the router is sending out GetNetInfo requests to make sure its understanding of the configuration is correct:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; requesting zones -> verifying AT: Sent GetNetInfo request broadcast on Ethernet0
The following message indicates that the router is rechecking its list of zones for its cable:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; verifying -> checking zones
The following message indicates that the router is now fully operational as a routing node and can begin routing:
Ether0: AppleTalk state changed; checking zones -> operational
Figure 2-9 shows sample debug apple events output that describes a nondiscovery-enabled router coming up when no other router is on the wire.

As Figure 2-9 shows, a nondiscovery-enabled router can come up when no other router is on the wire; however, it must assume that its configuration (if accurate syntactically) is correct, because no other router can verify it. Notice that the last line in Figure 2-9 indicates this situation.
Figure 2-10 shows sample debug apple events output that describes a discovery-enabled router coming up when there is no seed router on the wire.
Router# debug apple events
Ether0: AT: Resetting interface address filters
%AT-5-INTRESTART: Ether0: AppleTalk port restarting; protocol restarted

AT: Sent GetNetInfo request broadcast on Ether0
AT: Sent GetNetInfo request broadcast on Ether0

As Figure 2-10 shows, when you attempt to bring up a nonseed router without a seed router on the wire, it never becomes operational; instead, it hangs in the acquiring mode and continues to send out periodic GetNetInfo requests.
Figure 2-11 shows sample debug apple events output when a nondiscovery-enabled router is brought up on an AppleTalk internetwork that is in compatibility mode (set up to accommodate extended as well as nonextended AppleTalk) and the router has violated internetwork compatibility.

The following three configuration command lines indicate the part of the router's configuration that caused the configuration mismatch shown in Figure 2-11:
lestat(config)#int e 0 lestat(config-if)#apple cab 41-41 lestat(config-if)#apple zone Marketing
The router shown in Figure 2-11 had been configured with a cable range of 41-41 instead of 40-40, which would have been accurate. Additionally, the zone name was configured incorrectly; it should have been "Marketing," rather than being misspelled as "Marketing."
Use the debug apple nbp EXEC command to display debugging output from the Name Binding Protocol (NBP) routines. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug apple nbp [type number]| type | (Optional) Interface type. |
| number | (Optional) Interface number. |
To determine whether the router is receiving NBP lookups from a node on the AppleTalk network, enable debug apple nbp at each node between the router and the node in question to determine where the problem lies.
Figure 2-12 shows sample debug apple nbp output.

The first three lines in Figure 2-12 describe an NBP lookup request:

Table 2-3 describes the fields in the first line of output shown in Figure 2-12.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| AT: NBP | Indicates that this message describes an AppleTalk NBP packet. |
| ctrl = LkUp | Identifies the type of NBP packet. Possible values include
LkUp--NBP lookup request. LkUp-Reply--NBP lookup reply. |
| ntuples = 1 | Indicates the number of name-address pairs in the lookup request packet. Range: 1-31 tuples. |
| id = 77 | Identifies an NBP lookup request value. |
Table 2-4 describes the fields in the second line of output shown in Figure 2-12.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| AT: | Indicates that this message describes an AppleTalk packet. |
| 4160.19 | Indicates the network address of the requester. |
| skt 2 | Indicates the internet socket address of the requester. The responder will send the NBP lookup reply to this socket address. |
| enum 0 | Indicates the enumerator field. Used to identify multiple names registered on a single socket. Each tuple is assigned its own enumerator, incrementing from 0 for the first tuple. |
| name: =:ciscoRouter@Low End SW Lab | Indicates the entity name for which a network address has been requested. The AppleTalk entity name includes three components:
Object (in this case, a wildcard character ( Type (in this case, ciscoRouter) Zone (in this case, Low End SW Lab) |
The third line in Figure 2-12 essentially reiterates the information in the two lines above it, indicating that a lookup request has been made regarding name-address pairs for all objects of the ciscoRouter type in the Low End SW Lab zone.
Because the router is defined as an object of type ciscoRouter in zone Low End SW Lab, the router sends an NBP lookup reply in response to this NBP lookup request. The following two lines of output from Figure 2-12 show the router's response:
AT: NBP ctrl = LkUp-Reply, ntuples = 1, id = 77 AT: 4160.154, skt 254, enum 1, name: lestat.Ether0:ciscoRouter@Low End SW Lab
In the first line, ctrl = LkUp-Reply identifies this NBP packet as an NBP lookup request. The same value in the id field (id = 77) associates this lookup reply with the previous lookup request. The second line indicates that the network address associated with the router's entity name (lestat.Ether0:ciscoRouter@Low End SW Lab) is 4160.154. The fact that no other entity name/network address is listed indicates that the responder only knows about itself as an object of type ciscoRouter in zone Low End SW Lab.
Use the debug apple packet EXEC command to display per-packet debugging output. The output reports information online when a packet is received or a transmit is attempted. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug apple packet [type number]| type | (Optional) Interface type. |
| number | (Optional) Interface number. |
With this command, you can monitor the types of packets being slow switched. It displays at least one line of debugging output per AppleTalk packet processed.
When invoked in conjunction with the debug apple routing, debug apple zip, and debug apple nbp commands, the debug apple packet command adds protocol processing information in addition to generic packet details. It also reports successful completion or failure information.
When invoked in conjunction with the debug apple errors command, the debug apple packet command reports packet-level problems, such as those concerning encapsulation.
Figure 2-13 shows sample debug apple packet output.

This command reports significant events such as the discovery of new zones and zone list queries. It generates information similar to that generated by debug apple routing, but generates it for ZIP packets instead of RTMP packets.
You can use the debug apple zip command to determine whether a ZIP storm is taking place in the AppleTalk network. You can detect the existence of a ZIP storm when you see that no router on a cable has the zone name corresponding to a network number that all the routers have in their routing tables.
Figure 2-16 shows sample debug apple zip output.

The second line indicates that the neighbor at address 4160.19 replies to the zone request with a default zone:
AT: Recvd ZIP cmd 6 from 4160.19-6
The third line indicates that the router responds with three queries to the neighbor at network address 4160.19 for other zones on the network:
AT: 3 query packets sent to neighbor 4160.19
The fourth line indicates that the neighbor at network address 4160.19 responds with a ZIP extended reply, indicating that one zone has been assigned to network 31902:
AT: 1 zones for 31902, ZIP XReply, src 4160.19
The fifth line indicates that the router responds that the zone name of network 31902 is US-Florida, and the zone length of that zone name is 10:
AT: net 31902, zonelen 10, name US-Florida
Use the debug appn all EXEC command to turn on all possible debugging messages for Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN). The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug appn allThis command shows all APPN events. Use other forms of the debug appn command to display specific types of events.
![]() | Caution Debugging output takes priority over other network traffic. The debug appn all command generates more output than any other debug appn command and can alter timing in the network node. This command can severely diminish router performance or even render it unusable. In virtually all cases, it is best to use specific debug appn commands. |

Use the debug arp EXEC command to display information on Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) transactions. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug arpUse this command when some nodes on a TCP/IP network are responding, but others are not. It shows whether the router is sending ARPs and whether it is receiving ARPs.
Figure 2-28 shows sample debug arp output.

In Figure 2-28, each line of output represents an ARP packet that the router sent or received. Explanations for the individual lines of output follow.
The first line indicates that the router at IP address 172.16.22.7 and MAC address 0000.0c01.e117 sent an ARP request for the MAC address of the host at 172.16.22.96. The series of zeros (0000.0000.0000) following this address indicate that the router is currently unaware of the MAC address.
IP ARP: sent req src 172.16.22.7 0000.0c01.e117, dst 172.16.22.96 0000.0000.0000
The second line indicates that the router at IP address 172.16.22.7 receives a reply from the host at 172.16.22.96 indicating that its MAC address is 0800.2010.b908:
IP ARP: rcvd rep src 172.16.22.96 0800.2010.b908, dst 172.16.22.7
The third line indicates that the router receives an ARP request from the host at 172.16.6.10 requesting the MAC address for the host at 172.16.6.62:
IP ARP: rcvd req src 172.16.6.10 0000.0c00.6fa2, dst 172.16.6.62
The fourth line indicates that another host on the network attempted to send the router an ARP reply for its own address. The router ignores meaningless replies. Usually, meaningless replies happen if someone is running a bridge in parallel with the router and is allowing ARP to be bridged. This condition indicates a network misconfiguration.
IP ARP: rep filtered src 172.16.22.7 aa92.1b36.a456, dst 255.255.255.255 ffff.ffff.ffff
The fifth line indicates that another host on the network attempted to inform the router that it is on network 172.16.9.7, but the router does not know that the network is attached to a different router interface. The remote host (probably a PC or an X terminal) is misconfigured. If the router were to install this entry, it would deny service to the real machine on the proper cable.
IP ARP: rep filtered src 172.16.9.7 0000.0c00.6b31, dst 172.16.22.7 0800.2010.b908
The router uses asynchronous security protocols such as ADT Security Systems, Inc., Adplex, and Diebold to transport alarm blocks between two devices (such as a security alarm system console and an alarm panel). The alarm blocks are transported in passthrough mode using BSTUN encapsulation.
Figure 2-29 shows a partial sample debug asp packet output for asynchronous security protocols when packet debugging is enabled on an asynchronous line carrying Diebold alarm traffic. In this example, two polls are sent from the Diebold alarm console to two alarm panels that are multi-dropped from a single RS-232 interface. The alarm panels have device addresses F0 and F1. The example trace indicates that F1 is responding and F0 is not responding. At this point, you need to examine the physical link and possibly use a datascope to determine why the device is not responding.

Use the debug atm errors EXEC command to display Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) errors. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug atm errorsFigure 2-30 shows sample debug atm errors output.
Router# debug atm errors
ATM(ATM2/0): Encapsulation error, link=7, host=836CA86D.
ATM(ATM4/0): VCD#7 failed to echo OAM. 4 tries
The first line of output in Figure 2-30 indicates that a packet was routed to the ATM interface, but no static map was set up to route that packet to the proper virtual circuit.
The second line of output shows that an OAM F5 (virtual circuit) cell error occurred.
Use the debug atm events EXEC command to display ATM events. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug atm eventsThis command displays ATM events that occur on the ATM interface processor and is useful for diagnosing problems in an ATM network. It provides an overall picture of the stability of the network. In a stable network, the debug atm events command does not return any information. If the command generates numerous messages, the messages can indicate the possible source of problems.
When configuring or making changes to a router or interface for ATM, enable debug atm events. Doing so alerts you to the progress of the changes or to any errors that might result. Also use this command periodically when you suspect network problems.

Use the debug atm packet EXEC command to display per-packet debugging output. The output reports information online when a packet is received or a transmit is attempted. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug atm packet [interface atm number [vcd vcd-number]]| interface number | (Optional) ATM interface or subinterface number. |
| vcd vcd-number | (Optional) Number of the virtual circuit designator (VCD). |
The debug atm packet command displays all process-level ATM packets for both outbound and inbound packets. This command is useful for determining whether packets are being received and transmitted correctly.
For transmitted packets, the information is displayed only after the protocol data unit (PDU) is entirely encapsulated and a next hop virtual circuit (VC) is found. If information is not displayed, the address translation probably failed during encapsulation. When a next hop VC is found, the packet is displayed exactly as it will be presented on the wire. Having a display indicates the packets are properly encapsulated for transmission.
For received packets, information is displayed for all incoming frames. The display can show whether the transmitting station properly encapsulates the frames. Because all incoming frames are displayed, this information is useful when performing back-to-back testing and corrupted frames cannot be dropped by an intermediary ATM switch.
The debug atm packet command also displays the initial bytes of the actual PDU in hexadecimal. This information can be decoded only by qualified support or engineering personnel.
Figure 2-33 shows sample debug atm packet output.

debug bsc event
debug bstun events
Use the debug bstun events EXEC command to display BSTUN connection events and status. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug bstun events [number]| number | (Optional) Group number. |
When you enable the debug bstun events command, messages showing connection establishment and other overall status messages are displayed.
You can use the debug bstun events command to assist you in determining whether the BSTUN peers are configured correctly and are communicating. For example, if you enable the debug bstun packet command and you do not see any packets, you may want to enable event debugging.
Figure 2-37 shows a sample debug bstun events output of keepalive messages working correctly. If the routers are configured correctly, at least one router will show reply messages.

Use the debug callback EXEC command to display callback events when the router is using a modem and a chat script to call back on a terminal line. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug callbackThis command is useful for debugging chat scripts on PPP and ARAP lines that use callback mechanisms. The output provided by the debug callback command shows you how the call is progressing when used with the debug ppp or debug arap commands.
Figure 2-40 shows sample debug callback output.
Router# debug callback

Use the debug cdp EXEC command to enable debugging of Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP). The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug cdp {packets | adjacency | events}| packets | Enables packet-related debugging output. |
| adjacency | Enables adjacency-related debugging output. |
| events | Enables output related to error messages, such as detecting a bad checksum. |
Use debug cdp commands to display information about CDP packet activity, activity between CDP neighbors, and various CDP events.
Figure 2-41 shows a composite sample output from debug cdp packets, debug cdp adjacency, and debug cdp events.
Router#debug cdp packetsCDP packet info debugging is on Router#debug cdp adjacencyCDP neighbor info debugging is on Router#debug cdp eventsCDP events debugging is on CDP-PA: Packet sent out on Ethernet0 CDP-PA: Packet received from gray.cisco.com on interface Ethernet0 CDP-AD: Deleted table entry for violet.cisco.com, interface Ethernet0 CDP-AD: Interface Ethernet2 coming up CDP-EV: Encapsulation on interface Serial2 failed
The messages displayed by debug cdp commands are self-explanatory.
CDP is a media- and protocol-independent device-discovery protocol that runs on all Cisco routers.
You can use the debug cdp ip command to determine the IP network prefixes CDP is advertising and whether CDP is correctly receiving this information from neighboring routers.
Use the debug cdp ip command with the debug ip routing command to debug problems that occur when on-demand routing (ODR) routes are not installed in the routing table at a hub router. You can also use the debug cdp ip command with the debug cdp packet and debug cdp adjacency commands along with encapsulation-specific debug commands to debug problems that occur in the receipt of CDP IP information.
Figure 2-42 shows sample debug cdp ip output. This example shows the transmission of IP-specific information in a CDP update. In this case, three network prefixes are being transmitted, each with a different network mask.
Router# debug cdp ip
CDP-IP: Writing prefix 172.1.69.232.112/28
CDP-IP: Writing prefix 172.19.89.0/24
CDP-IP: Writing prefix 11.0.0.0/8
In addition to the messages shown in Figure 2-42, you might see the following messages:
CDP-IP: Updating prefix 172.1.1.0/24 in routing table
CDP-IP: IP TLV length (3) invalid
CDP-IP: Reading prefix 172.1.1.0/24 source 10.0.0.1 via Ethernet0/0

The debug channel events EXEC command displays processing events that occur on the channel adapter interfaces of all installed adapters. This command is valid for the Cisco 7000 series routers only. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug channel events When configuring or making changes to a router or interface that supports IBM channel attach, enable debug channel events. Doing so alerts you to the progress of the changes or to any errors that might result. Also use this command periodically when you suspect network problems.
Figure 2-43 shows sample debug channel events output.
Router# debug channel events
Channel3/0: cip_reset(), state administratively down
Channel3/0: cip_reset(), state up
Channel3/0: sending nodeid
Channel3/0: sending command for vc 0, CLAW path C700, device C0
Explanations for individual lines of output from Figure 2-43 follow.
The following line indicates that the CIP is being reset to an administrative down state:
Channel3/0: cip_reset(), state administratively down
The following line indicates that the CIP is being reset to an administrative up state:
Channel3/0: cip_reset(), state up
The following line indicates that the node id is being sent to the CIP. This information is the same as the "Local Node" information under the show extended channel slot/port subchannels command. The CIP needs this information to send to the host mainframe.
Channel3/0: sending nodeid
The following line indicates that a CLAW subchannel command is being sent from the RP to the CIP. The value vc 0 indicates that the CIP will use virtual circuit number 0 with this device. The virtual circuit number will also show up when you use the debug channel packets command.
Channel3/0: sending command for vc 0, CLAW path C700, device C0
debug channel love
debug channel packets
Use the debug channel love EXEC command to display Channel Interface Processor (CIP) love letter events. This command is valid for the Cisco 7000 series routers only. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug channel loveThis command displays Channel Interface Processor (CIP) events that occur on the CIP interface processor and is useful for diagnosing problems in an IBM channel attach network. It provides an overall picture of the stability of the network. In a stable network, the debug channel love command returns a statistic message (cip_love_letter) that is transmitted every ten seconds.
Figure 2-44 shows sample debug channel love output.
Router# debug channel love
Channel3/1: love letter received, bytes 3308
Channel3/0: love letter received, bytes 3336
cip_love_letter: received ll, but no cip_info
The following line indicates that data was received on the CIP:
Channel3/1: love letter received, bytes 3308
The following line indicates that the interface is enabled, but there is no configuration for it. It does not normally indicate a problem, just that the route processor (RP) got statistics from the CIP but has no place to store them.
cip_love_letter: recieved ll, but no cip_info
debug channel events
debug channel packets
Use the debug channel packets EXEC command to display per-packet debugging output. The output reports information when a packet is received or a transmit is attempted. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug channel packets
The debug channel packets command displays all process-level Channel Interface Processor (CIP) packets for both outbound and inbound packets. You will need to disable fast switching and autonomous switching to obtain debugging output. This command is useful for determining whether packets are received or transmitted correctly.
This command is valid for the Cisco 7000 series routers only.
Figure 2-45 shows sample debug channel packets output.
