Re: How to turn on tracing for a port

Hi Jim

We just had this kind of trace done, and they are able to use Wireshark to view the results. I'm not sure the old SST traces could be viewed with WS. IBM i service person was tremendously helpful analyzing what was going on with some problem communications we were having.

Cheers

Most likely a TCP trace. But be careful to get the parms right, that
trace will get big fast. I think IBM uses wire shark to view them, but
don’t quote me on that.

Hi Reggie

There are various trace commands - you can use GO CMDTRC to see them -
these CMD* menus are really useful and sometimes forgotten.

Since you're looking at TCP stuff, you might see if there is a GO CMDTCP
menu.

I offer these because right now I don't remember which command I believe
can help you.

Hello,
We would like to turn on some type of trace for a period of time to see

who/what is connecting to a particular port number. Would anyone know how
to accomplish this? Thank you.
