2.193 set_trace_type

The set_trace_type command specifies tracing options for SNAplus2 kernel components. You can use this command to specify the state of tracing (on or off) at all interfaces or to turn tracing on or off at specific interfaces (leaving tracing at other interfaces unchanged). For more information about tracing options, refer to the HP-UX SNAplus2 Diagnostics Guide.

This command does not control DLC line tracing. To control DLC line tracing use the add_dlc_trace command.

This command must be issued to a running node.
