this IP address is quickly resolved to a hostname by the name
server, or at least that the name server responds quickly with
“address not found.”
Todetermine that the IP address resolves properly enter the host
command on your workstation as shown:
workstation>host 5.1.1.1
host: address 5.1.1.1 NOT FOUND
workstation>
If the response takes more than 1 second, select an IP address that
resolves more quickly.
timestamp
Allows you to turn on message timestamping so that either the time of day
or uptime (number of hours, minutes, and seconds, but no date, since the
router was last initialized) appears next to each message, or to turn off
message timestamping.
Note: If you turn on timestamping, you must remember to go back into the
CONFIG process and set the router’s date and time using the time
command. Otherwise, all messages will come out with 00:00:00, or
negative numbers in the hours, minutes, and/or seconds, for
example 00:-4:-5.
Use the set timestamp command to enable one of the following timestamp
options:
timeofday
Adds an HH:MM:SS prefix to each ELS message indicating the
time of the occurrence during a 24-hour day.
uptime Adds an HH:MM:SS prefix to each ELS message indicating the
time of the occurrence during a 100-hour cycle of uptime for the
router.After 100 hours of uptime, the uptime counter returns to zero
to begin another 100-hour cycle.
off Turns offthe ELS timestamp prefix.
Syntax:
set timestamp [timeofday or uptime or off]
trace Use the set trace command to configure tracing options. When tracing
options are configured from the monitoring environment, the changes take
effect immediately,and return to their previously configured settings when
the device is rebooted.
Syntax:
set trace decode...
default-bytes-per-pkt...
max-bytes-per-pkt...
