Improved debugging capabilities

Intel® Telecom Subsystem Summary Tool (its_sysinfo) is a single utility that collects a complete system of diagnostic information designed for users without a telephony background.

Improved tracing capabilities

The improved tracing capabilities available with the Runtime Trace Facility (RTF) allow you to do the following:

Configure tracing to automatically archive log files so that they are not overwritten during an automated system restart

Dynamically turn Runtime Trace Facility (RTF) logging on and off without restarting the system

Add a Date field to all logging capability

Span logging over multiple files to control size of disk usage

New Tools

This release provides the following new or enhanced diagnostics tools:

PSTN Diagnostics tool

The PSTN Diagnostics tool (pstndiag) is a utility for diagnosing and troubleshooting public switched telephone network (PSTN) connectivity problems on specific hardware products based on DM3 architecture. The pstndiag tool combines several existing logging tools and allows you to perform the following activities:

Query the system for board information

View all boards in the system that have been downloaded

Monitor all components (boards, trunks, channels) in the system, and view trunk and channel information, such as trunk status, alarm status, channel state, and call state

Display the protocol family running on a channel (ISDN or CAS)

Produce a consolidated log file for all components that are being actively monitored in the system

Display a previously saved log file

Launch the ISDNtrace and CAStrace tools to perform further diagnostic tests

Runtime Trace Facility (RTF) tool

The RTF tool provides a mechanism for tracing the execution path of various Intel Dialogic runtime libraries. The trace information can be captured in log files or sent to a debug stream. The resulting log file/debug stream output helps troubleshoot runtime issues for applications that are built with Intel Dialogic software.

Intel® Telecom Subsystem Summary Tool (its_sysinfo)

The Intel Telecom Subsystem Summary Tool (its_sysinfo) provides a simple way to collect information about systems built using Intel® telecom products. The its_sysinfo tool collects data from the system on which you execute it and provides you with information about the system environment: the operating system, computer architecture, Intel Dialogic System Release, and operational logs.
