Usage Guidelines

MAC log messages are written to a circular log file even when debugging is not turned on. These messages include timestamps, events, and information pertinent to these events. Use the show controllers cable-modem mac log command to view MAC log messages.

If the Cisco uBR924 interface fails to come up or resets periodically, the MAC log will capture what happened. For example, if an address is not obtained from the DHCP server, an error is logged, initialization starts over, and the Cisco uBR924 scans for a downstream frequency.

The most useful keywords for troubleshooting a Cisco uBR924 are log, errors, and resets. See

Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3.
