Tech Support

The NAM syslog records NAM system alerts that contain event descriptions and date and time stamps, indicating unexpected or potentially noteworthy conditions. This feature generates a potentially extensive display of the results of various internal system troubleshooting commands and system logs.

This information is unlikely to be meaningful to the average user. It is intended to be used by the Cisco TAC for debugging purposes. You are not expected to understand this information; instead, you should save the information and attach it to an email message to the Cisco TAC.

Before you can view the Tech-Support page, you must enable the System Config user privilege on the Administration > Users > Local Database page. For more information on editing user privileges, see Editing a User, page 5-18.

Note You can also view this information from the NAM CLI. For information on using the NAM CLI, see Cisco Network Analysis Module Command Reference, for NME-NAM devices, the Network Analysis Module (NME-NAM)feature module.

To view tech support:

Step 1 Choose Administration > Diagnostics > Tech Support.

After a few minutes, extensive diagnostic information is generated and displayed in the Diagnostics Tech Support Window.

Step 2 To save the information, either select File > Save As... from the browser menu, or scroll to the bottom, click on NAM-logs.tar.bz2, and save it to your local PC.
