Notes:

1.Press the Enter key without changing to the defaults on the Format a Trace Data display to view all the data associated with the trace. The information is not in any special format.

2.Select the option to format and print only the data that you want to see.

3.All options available for formatting depend on the protocol of the line that is being traced. Only valid choices appear for each protocol.

4.Not all combinations of options are valid for all protocols. If you select an option that is not valid, error messages appear. If an error message appears, you must change your selections. You can restore all options to their default values by using the F5 (Refresh) function key.

5.Use online help for more information about these options.

vA help page, to assist in understanding the output. Help information for a specific protocol is given because the trace data differs for each communications protocol.

vThe formatted trace data output appears as follows:
