Use the debug serial interface EXEC command to display information on a serial connection failure. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug serial interfaceIf the show interface serial command shows that the line and protocol are down, you can use the debug serial interface command to isolate a timing problem as the cause of a connection failure. If the keepalive values in the mineseq, yourseen, and myseen fields are not incrementing in each subsequent line of output, there is a timing or line problem at one end of the connection.
The output of the debug serial interface command can vary, depending on the type of WAN configured for an interface: Frame Relay, HDLC, HSSI, SMDS, or X.25. The output also can vary depending on the type of encapsulation configured for that interface. The hardware platform also can affect debug serial interface output.
The following sections show sample debug serial interface displays for various configurations and describe the possible output the command can generate for these configurations.
The following message is displayed if the encapsulation for the interface is Frame Relay (or HDLC) and the router attempts to send a packet containing an unknown packet type:
Illegal serial link type code xxx
Figure 2-234 shows sample debug serial interface output for an HDLC connection when keepalives are enabled.In Figure 2-234, the debug serial interface display shows that the remote router is not receiving all the keepalives the router is sending. When the difference in the values in the myseq and mineseen fields exceeds three, the line goes down and the interface is reset.

Table 2-115 describes significant fields shown in Figure 2-234.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Serial1 | Interface through which the serial connection is taking place. |
| HDLC | The serial connection is an HDLC connection. |
| myseq 636119 | The myseq counter increases by one each time the router sends a keepalive packet to the remote router. |
| mineseen 636119 | The value of the mineseen counter reflects the last myseq sequence number the remote router has acknowledged receiving from the router. The remote router stores this value in its yourseen counter and sends that value in a keepalive packet to the router. |
| yourseen 515032 | The yourseen counter reflects the value of the myseq sequence number the router has received in a keepalive packet from the remote router. |
| line up | The connection between the routers is maintained. Value changes to "line down" if the values of the myseq and myseen fields in a keepalive packet differ by more than three. Value returns to "line up" when the interface is reset. If the line is in loopback mode, ("looped") appears after this field. |
Table 2-116 describes additional error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for HDLC.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Illegal serial link type code xxx, PC = 0xnnnnnn | This message is displayed if the router attempts to send a packet containing an unknown packet type. |
| Illegal HDLC serial type code xxx, PC = 0xnnnnn | This message is displayed if an unknown packet type is received. |
| Serial 0: attempting to restart | This message is displayed periodically if the interface is down. The hardware is then reset to hopefully correct the problem. |
| Serial 0: Received bridge packet sent to nnnnnnnnn | This message is displayed if a bridge packet is received over a serial interface configured for HDLC, and bridging is not configured on that interface. |
On an HSSI interface, the debug serial interface command can generate the following additional error message:
HSSI0: Reset from 0xnnnnnnn
This message indicates that the HSSI hardware has been reset. The 0xnnnnnnn variable is the address of the routine requesting that the hardware be reset; this value is useful only to development engineers.
Table 2-117 describes error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for ISDN Basic Rate.
| Message | Description |
|---|---|
| BRI: D-chan collision | A collision on the ISDN D-channel has occurred; the software will retry transmission. |
| Received SID Loss of Frame Alignment int. | The ISDN hardware has lost frame alignment. This usually indicates a problem with the ISDN network. |
| Unexpected IMP int: ipr = 0xnn | The ISDN hardware received an unexpected interrupt. The 0xnn variable indicates the value returned by the interrupt register. |
| BRI(d): RX Frame Length Violation. Length=n
BRI(d): RX Nonoctet Aligned Frame BRI(d): RX Abort Sequence BRI(d): RX CRC Error BRI(d): RX Overrun Error BRI(d): RX Carrier Detect Lost | Any of these messages can be displayed when a receive error occurs on one of the ISDN channels. The (d) indicates which channel it is on. These messages can indicate a problem with the ISDN network connection. |
| BRI0: Reset from 0xnnnnnnn | The BRI hardware has been reset. The 0xnnnnnnn variable is the address of the routine that requested that the hardware be reset; it is useful only to development engineers. |
| BRI(d): Bad state in SCMs scm1=x scm2=x scm3=x
BRI(d): Bad state in SCONs scon1=x scon2 =x scon3=x BRI(d): Bad state ub SCR; SCR=x | Any of these messages can be displayed if the ISDN hardware is not in the proper state. The hardware is then reset. If the message is displayed constantly, it usually indicates a hardware problem. |
| BRI(d): Illegal packet encapsulation=n | This message is displayed if a packet is received, but the encapsulation used for the packet is not recognized. It can indicate that the interface is misconfigured. |
Table 2-118 describes the additional error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for an MK5025 device.
| Message | Description |
|---|---|
| MK5(d): Reset from 0xnnnnnnnn | This message indicates that the hardware has been reset. The 0xnnnnnnn variable is the address of the routine that requested that the hardware be reset; it is useful only to development engineers. |
| MK5(d): Illegal packet encapsulation=n | This message is displayed if a packet is received, but the encapsulation used for the packet is not recognized. Possibly an indication that the interface is misconfigured. |
| MK5(d): No packet available for packet realignment | This message is displayed in cases where the serial driver attempted to get a buffer (memory) and was unable to do so. |
| MK5(d): Bad state in CSR0=(x) | This message is displayed if the hardware is not in the proper state. The hardware is then reset. If this message is displayed constantly, it usually indicates a hardware problem. |
| MK5(d): New serial state=n | This message is displayed to indicate that the hardware has interrupted the software. It displays the state that the hardware is reporting. |
| MK5(d): DCD is down.
MK5(d): DCD is up. | If the interrupt indicates that the state of carrier has changed, one of these messages is displayed to indicate the current state of DCD. |
When encapsulation is set to SMDS, debug serial interface displays SMDS packets that are sent and received, as well as any error messages resulting from SMDS packet transmission.
The error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for SMDS follow.
The following message indicates that a new protocol requested SMDS to encapsulate the data for transmission. SMDS is not yet able to encapsulate the protocol.
SMDS: Error on Serial 0, encapsulation bad protocol = x
The following message indicates that SMDS was asked to encapsulate a packet, but no corresponding destination E.164 SMDS address was found in any of the static SMDS tables or in the ARP tables:
SMDS send: Error in encapsulation, no hardware address, type = x
The following message indicates that a protocol such as CLNS or IP has been enabled on an SMDS interface, but the corresponding multicast addresses have not been configured. The n variable displays the link type for which encapsulation was requested.
SMDS: Send, Error in encapsulation, type=n
The following messages can occur when a corrupted packet is received on an SMDS interface. The router expected x, but received y.
SMDS: Invalid packet, Reserved NOT ZERO,x ySMDS: Invalid packet, TAG mismatchx ySMDS: Invalid packet, Bad TRAILER lengthx y
The following messages can indicate an invalid length for an SMDS packet:
SMDS: Invalid packet, Bad BA lengthxSMDS: Invalid packet, Bad header extension lengthxSMDS: Invalid packet, Bad header extension typexSMDS: Invalid packet, Bad header extension valuex
The following messages are displayed when the debug serial interface command is enabled:
Interface Serial 0 Sending SMDS L3 packet: SMDS: dgsize:xtype:0xnsrc:ydst:z
If the debug serial interface command is enabled, the following message can be displayed when a packet is received on an SMDS interface, but the destination SMDS address does not match any on that interface:
SMDS: Packet n, not addressed to us
Use the debug serial packet EXEC command to display more detailed serial interface debugging information than you can obtain using debug serial interface command. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug serial packetThe debug serial packet command generates output that is dependent on the type of serial interface and the encapsulation that is running on that interface. The hardware platform also can impact debug serial packet output.
The debug serial packet command displays output for only SMDS encapsulations.
Figure 2-235 shows sample output when SMDS is enabled on the interface.

As Figure 2-235 shows, when encapsulation is set to SMDS, debug serial packet displays the entire SMDS header (in hex), as well as some payload data on transmit or receive. This information is useful only when you have an understanding of the SMDS protocol. The first line of the output indicates either Sending or Receiving.
Use the debug service-module EXEC command to display debugging information that monitors the detection and clearing of network alarms on the integrated channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU) modules installed in a Cisco 2524 or Cisco 2525 router. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug service-moduleUse this command to enable and disable debug logging for the serial 0 and serial 1 interfaces when an integrated CSU/DSU is present. This command enables debugging on all interfaces.
Network alarm status can also be viewed through the use of the show service-module command.
Figure 2-236 shows sample debug service-module output.
Router# debug service-module
SERVICE_MODULE(1): loss of signal ended after duration 00:05:36
SERVICE_MODULE(1): oos/oof ended after duration 01:05:14
SERVICE_MODULE(0): Unit has no clock
SERVICE_MODULE(0): detects loss of signal
SERVICE_MODULE(0): loss of signal ended after duration 00:00:33
Use the debug smrp all EXEC command to display information about Simple Multicast Routing Protocol (SMRP) activity. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug smrp allBecause the debug smrp all command displays all SMRP debugging output, it is processor intensive and should not be enabled when memory is scarce or in very high traffic situations.
For general debugging, use the debug smrp all command and turn off excessive transactions with the no debug smrp transaction command. This combination of commands will display various state changes and events without displaying every transaction packet. For debugging a specific feature such as a routing problem, use the debug smrp route and debug smrp transaction commands to see if packets are sent and received and which specific routes are affected. The show smrp traffic command is highly recommended as a troubleshooting method because it displays the SMRP counters.
For examples of the type of output you may see, refer to each of the commands listed in the "Related Commands" section.
debug smrp group
debug smrp mcache
debug smrp neighbor
debug smrp port
debug smrp route
debug smrp transaction
Use the debug smrp group EXEC command to display information about SMRP group activity. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug smrp groupThe debug smrp group command displays information when a group is created or deleted and when a forwarding entry for a group is created, changed, or deleted.
For more information, refer to the show smrp group command described in the Network Protocols Command Reference, Part 2
Figure 2-237 shows sample debug smrp group output of a port being created and deleted on group AT 20.34. (AT signifies that this is an AppleTalk network group.)
Router#debug smrp groupSMRP: Group AT 20.34, created on port 20.1 by 20.2 SMRP: Group AT 20.34, deleted on port 20.1
Table 2-119 lists the messages that may be generated with the debug smrp group command concerning the forwarding table.
| Messages | Descriptions |
|---|---|
| Group address, deleted on port address | Group entry was deleted from the group table for the specified port. |
| Group address, forward state changed from state to state | Group's state changed. Possible states are join, forward, and leave. |

| Group address, created forward entry - parent address child address | Forward entry was created in the forwarding table for the parent and child address. |
| Group address, creator no longer up on address | Group creator has not been heard from for a specified time and is deemed no longer available. |
| Group address, pruning duplicate path on address | Duplicate path was removed. If we are forwarding and we are a child port, and our port parent address is not pointing to our own port address, we are in a duplicate path. |
| Group address, member no longer up on address | Group member has not been heard from for a specified time and is deemed no longer available. |
| Group address, no more child ports in forward entry | Forward entry for group no longer has any child ports. As a result, the forward entry is no longer necessary. |
Use the debug smrp mcache EXEC command to display information about SMRP multicast fast-switching cache entries. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug smrp mcacheUse the show smrp mcache command (described in the Network Protocols Command Reference, Part 2) to display the entries in the SMRP multicast cache, and use the debug smrp mcache command to see whether the cache is being populated and invalidated.
Figure 2-238 shows sample debug smrp mcache output. In this example, the cache is created and populated for group AT 11.124. (AT signifies that this is an AppleTalk network group.)
Router#debug smrp mcacheSMRP: Cache created SMRP: Cache populated for group AT 11.124 mac - 090007400b7c00000c1740d9 net - 001fef7500000014ff020a0a0a SMRP: Forward cache entry created for group AT 11.124 SMRP: Forward cache entry validated for group AT 11.124 SMRP: Forward cache entry invalidated for group AT 11.124 SMRP: Forward cache entry deleted for group AT 11.124
Table 2-120 lists all the messages that can be generated with the debug smrp mcache command concerning the multicast cache.
| Messages | Descriptions |
|---|---|
| Cache populated for group address | SMRP packet was received on a parent port that has fast switching enabled. As a result, the cache was created and the MAC and network headers were stored for all child ports that have fast switching enabled. Use the show smrp port appletalk command with the optional interface type and number to display the switching path. |
| Cache memory allocated | Memory was allocated for the multicast cache. |
| Forward cache entry created/deleted for group address | Forward cache entry for the group was added to or deleted from the cache. |
| Forward cache entry validated for group address | Forward cache entry is validated and is now ready for fast switching. |
| Forward cache entry invalidated for group address | Cache entry is invalidated because some change (such as port was shut down) occurred to one of the ports. |
Use the debug smrp neighbor EXEC command to display information about SMRP neighbor activity. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug smrp neighborThe debug smrp neighbor command displays information when a neighbor operating state changes. A neighbor is an adjacent router. For more information, refer to the show smrp neighbor command described in the Network Protocols Command Reference, Part 2.
Figure 2-239 shows sample debug smrp neighbor output. In this example, the neighbor on port 30.02 has changed state from normal operation to secondary operation.

Use the debug smrp route EXEC command to display information about SMRP routing activity. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug smrp routeFor more information, refer to the show smrp route command described in the Network Protocols Command Reference, Part 2.
Figure 2-241 shows sample debug smrp route output. In this example, poison notification is received from port 30.2. Poison notification is the receipt of a poisoned route on a nonparent port.
Router#debug smrp routeSMRP: Route AT 20-20, poison notification from 30.2 SMRP: Route AT 30-30, poison notification from 30.2
Table 2-123 lists all the messages that can be generated with the debug smrp route command concerning the routing table. In Table 2-123, the term route does not refer to an address but rather it is a network range.
| Messages | Descriptions |
|---|---|
| Route address, deleted/created as local network | Route entry was removed from or added to the routing table. |
| Route address, from address has invalid distance value | Route entry from the specified address has an incorrect distance value and was ignored. |

sysUpTime.0 = 2217027
system.1.0 = Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software
system.6.0 =
SNMP: Packet sent via UDP to 172.16.63.17
Based on the kind of packet sent or received, the output may vary. For get-bulk requests, a line similar to the following is displayed:
SNMP: Get-bulk request, reqid 23584, nonrptr 10, maxreps 20
For traps, a line similar to the following is displayed:
SNMP: V1 Trap, ent 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.13, gentrap 3, spectrap 0
Table 2-125 describes significant fields in these displays.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Get-next request | Indicates what type of SNMP PDU the packet is. Possible types are:
Depending on the type of PDU, the rest of this line displays different fields. The indented lines following this line list the MIB object names and corresponding values. |
| reqid | Request identification number. This number is used by the SNMP manager to match responses with requests. |
| errstat | Error status. All PDU types other than response will have an errstat of 0. If the agent encounters an error while processing the request, it will set errstat in the response PDU to indicate the type of error. |
| erridx | Error index. This value will always be 0 in all PDUs other than responses. If the agent encounters an error, the erridx will be set to indicate which varbind in the request caused the error. For example, if the agent had an error on the 2nd varbind in the request PDU, the response PDU will have an erridx equal to 2. |
| nonrptr | Non-repeater value. This value and the maximum repetition value are used to determine how many varbinds are returned. Refer to RFC 1905 for details. |
| maxreps | Maximum repetition value. This value and the non-repeater value are used to determine how many varbinds are returned. Refer to RFC 1905 for details. |
| ent | Enterprise object identifier. Refer to RFC 1215 for details. |
| gentrap | Generic trap value. Refer to RFC 1215 for details. |
| spectrap | Specific trap value. Refer to RFC 1215 for details. |
Use the debug sntp adjust EXEC command to display information about SNTP clock adjustments. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug sntp adjustFigure 2-244 shows sample debug sntp adjust command output when an offset to the time reported by the configured NTP server is calculated. The offset indicates the difference between the router time and the actual time (as kept by the server) and is displayed in milliseconds. The clock time is then successfully changed to the accurate time by adding the offset to the current router time.
Router# debug sntp adjust Delay calculated, offset 3.48 Clock slewed.
Figure 2-245 show sample debug sntp adjust command output when an offset to the time reported by a broadcast server is calculated. Since the packet is a broadcast packet, no transmission delay can be calculated. However, in this case, the offset is too large, so the clock is reset to the correct time.
Router# debug sntp adjust No delay calculated, offset 11.18 Clock stepped.
Use the debug sntp packets EXEC command to display information about SNTP packets sent and received. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

Use the debug source error EXEC command to display source-route bridging errors. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug source errorThe debug source error command displays some output also found in the debug source bridge output. Refer to the debug source bridge command for other possible output.
In all of the following examples of debug source error command messages, the variable number is the Token Ring interface. For example, if the line of output starts with SRB1, the output relates to the Token Ring 1 interface. SRB indicates a source-route bridging message. RSRB indicates a remote source-route bridging message. SRTLB indicates a source-route translational bridging message.
In the following example, a packet of protocol protocol-type was dropped:
SRBnumber drop: Routed protocol protocol-type
In the following example, an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) packet was dropped. ARP is defined in RFC 826.
SRBnumber drop:TYPE_RFC826_ARP
In the following example, the current Cisco IOS version does not support Qualified Logical Link Control (QLLC). Reconfigure the router with an image that has the IBM feature set.
RSRB: QLLC not supported in version version Please reconfigure.
In the following example, the packet was dropped because the outgoing interface of the router was down:
RSRB IF: outgoing interface not up, dropping packet
In the following example, the router received an out-of-sequence IP sequence number in a Fast Sequenced Transport (FST) packet. FST has no recovery for this problem like TCP encapsulation does.
RSRB FST: bad sequence number dropping.
In the following example, the router was unable to locate the virtual interface:
RSRB: couldn't find virtual interface
In the following example, the peer router's TCP queue is full. TCPD indicates that this is a TCP debug.
RSRB TCPD: tcp queue full for peer
In the following example, the router was unable to send data to the peer router. A result of 1 indicates that the TCP queue is full. A result of -1 indicates that the RSRB peer is closed.
RSRB TCPD: tcp send failed for peer result
In the following example, the Routing Information Identifier was not set in the explorer packet going forward. The packet will not support SRB, so it is dropped.
vrforward_explorer - RII not set
In the following example, a packet sent to a virtual bridge in the router did not include a routing information field (RIF) to tell the router which route to use:
RSRB: no RIF on packet sent to virtual bridge
The following example indicates that the RIF did not contain any information or the length field was set to zero:
RSRB: RIF length of zero sent to virtual bridge
The following message occurs when the local service access point (LSAP) is out of range. The variable lsap-out is the value, type is the type of RSRB peer, and state is the state of the RSRB peer.
VRP: rsrb_lsap_out = lsap-out, type = type, state = state
In the following message, the router is unable to find another router with which to exchange bridge protocol data units (BPDU's). BPDU's are exchanged to set up the spanning tree and determine the forwarding path.
RSRB(span): BPDU's peer not found

SRBnumber: illegal explorer, s:source-MAC-addrd:dst-MAC-addrrif:rif
The following example indicates that the direction bit in the RIF field was set, or that an odd packet length was encountered. Such packets are dropped.
SRBnumber: bad explorer control, D set or odd
The following example indicates that a spanning explorer was dropped because the spanning option was not configured on the interface:
SRBnumber: span dropped, input off, s:source-MAC-addrd:dst-MAC-addrrif:rif
The following example indicates that a spanning explorer was dropped because it had traversed the ring previously:
SRBnumber: span violation, s:source-MAC-addrd:dst-MAC-addrrif:rif
The following example indicates that an explorer was dropped because the maximum hop count limit was reached on that interface:
SRBnumber: max hops reached -hop-cnt, s:source-MAC-addrd:dst-MAC-addrrif:rif
The following example indicates that the ring exchange request was sent to the indicated peer. This request tells the remote side which rings this node has and asks for a reply indicating which rings that side has.

The following example shows that an explorer packet was propagated onto the local ring from the remote ring group:
RSRBn: sent local explorer, bridgebridgetrnring, [rif]
The following messages indicate that the remote source-route bridging code found the packet was in error:
RSRBn: ring groupring-groupnot found RSRBn: explorer rif [rif] not long enough
The following example indicates that a buffer could not be obtained for a ring exchange packet (this is an internal error):
RSRB: couldn't get pak for ringXchg
The following example indicates that a ring exchange packet was received that had an incorrect length (this is an internal error):
RSRB: XCHG: req/reply badly formed, lengthpak-length, peerpeer-id
The following example indicates that a ring entry was removed for the peer; the ring was possibly disconnected from the network, causing the remote router to send an update to all its peers.
RSRB: removing bridgebridgeringringfrompeer-idring-type
The following example indicates that a ring entry was added for the specified peer; the ring was possibly added to the network, causing the other router to send an update to all its peers.
RSRB: added bridgebridge, ringringforpeer-id
The following example indicates that no memory was available to add a ring number to the ring group specified (this is an internal error):
RSRB: no memory for ring element ring-group

RSRB: IF New version. local=local-version, remote=remote-version,pak-op-codepeer-id
The following example indicates that a packet with a bad op code was received for a direct encapsulation peer (this is an internal error):
RSRB: IFin: bad opop-code(op codestring) frompeer-id
The following example indicates that the virtual ring header will not fit on the packet to be sent to the peer (this is an internal error):
RSRB: vrif_sender, hdr won't fit
The following example indicates that the specified peer is being opened. The retry count specifies the number of times the opening operation is attempted.
RSRB: CONN: opening peerpeer-idretry-count
The following example indicates that the router, configured for FST encapsulation, received a version reply to the version request packet it had sent previously:
RSRB: FST Rcvd version reply frompeer-id(versionversion-number)
The following example indicates that the router, configured for FST encapsulation, sent a version request packet to the specified peer:
RSRB: FST Version Request. op =opcode,peer-id

Use the debug stun packet EXEC command to display information on packets traveling through the serial tunnel (STUN) links. Use the no form of this command to disable debugging output.
[no] debug stun packet [group] [address]
| group | (Optional) Decimal integer assigned to a group. Using this option limits output to packets associated with the specified STUN group. |
| address | (Optional) Output is further limited to only those packets containing the specified STUN address. The address argument is in the appropriate format for the STUN protocol running for the specified group. |
Because using this command is processor intensive, it is best to use it after hours, rather than in a production environment. It is also best to turn this command on by itself, rather than use it in conjunction with other debug commands.
Figure 2-256 shows sample debug stun packet output.

Explanations for individual lines of output from Figure 2-256 follow.
The following line describes an X1 type of packet:
STUN sdlc: 0:00:04 Serial3 NDI: (0C2/008) U: SNRM PF:1
Table 2-131 describes significant fields shown in this line of debug stun packet output.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| STUN sdlc: | Indication that the STUN feature is providing the information. |
| 0:00:04 | Time elapsed since receipt of previous packet. |
| Serial3 | Interface type and unit number reporting the event. |
| NDI: | The type of cloud separating the SDLC end nodes. Possible values follow:
|
|
0C2 | SDLC address of the SDLC connection. |
| 008 | A modulo value of 8. |
| U:SNRM | The frame type followed by the command or response type. In this case it is an Unnumbered frame that contains an SNRM (Set Normal Response Mode) command. The possible frame types are as follows:
|
|
PF:1 | Poll/Final bit. The possible values are as follows:
|
The following line of output describes an X2 type of packet:
STUN sdlc: 0:00:00 Serial3 SDI: (0C2/008) S: RR PF:1 NR:000
All the fields in the previous line of output match those for an X1 type of packet, except the last field, which is additional. NR:000 indicates a receive count of 0; the range for the receive count is 0 to 7.
The following line of output describes an X3 type of packet:
STUN sdlc: 0:00:00 Serial3 SDI: (0C2/008) S:I PF:1 NR:000 NS:000
All fields in the previous line of output match those for an X2 type of packet, except the last field, which is additional. NS:000 indicates a send count of 0; the range for the send count is 0 to 7.
Use the debug tacacs EXEC command to display information associated with the Terminal Access Controller Access Control System (TACACS). The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug tacacsTACACS is a distributed security system that secures networks against unauthorized access. Cisco supports TACACS under the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) security system.
Use the debug aaa authentication command to get a high-level view of login activity. When TACACS is used on the router, you can use the debug tacacs command for more detailed debugging information.
Figure 2-257 shows part of the debug aaa authentication command output for a TACACS login attempt that was successful. The information indicates that TACACS+ is the authentication method used.

Use the debug tacacs events EXEC command to display information from the TACACS+ helper process. The no form of this command disables debugging output.
[no] debug tacacs eventsUse the debug tacacs events command only in response to a request from service personnel to collect data when a problem has been reported.
![]() | Caution Use the debug tacacs events command with caution because it can generate a significant amount of output. |
The TACACS protocol is used on routers to assist in managing user accounts. TACACS+ enhances the TACACS functionality by adding security features and cleanly separating out the authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) functionality.
Figure 2-260 shows sample debug tacacs events output. In this example, the opening and closing of a TCP connection to a TACACS+ server are shown, as well as the bytes read and written over the connection and the connection's TCP status.
