Using the

Debug

Menu

The Debug menu contains commands to set various debugging options. Debugging should only be enabled specifically during a debugging or monitoring session, and disabled when the session is complete. Enabling multiple debugging options simultaneously slows IAD performance.

NOTE Debugging commands are reserved for use by Paradyne network engineers.

Debugging options may be enabled and disabled without resetting the IAD. To display the Debug menu, type G on the Utilities menu.

M. Set Ethernet MAC

E. Enable/Disable PPP debug mode

S. Enable/Disable STP debug mode

I. Enable/Disable DHCP Client debug mode

Q. Display Error Dump

To perform a task, type the option and proceed to the appropriate section, following.

Setting the Ethernet MAC Address

To modify the Ethernet MAC address, perform these steps:

1.Type M on the Debug menu. The IAD displays the following message:

This will change the factory setting for the ENET Mac Address.

Are you sure?

2.Type Y to proceed, or any other character to abort.

When you proceed, the IAD displays the current MAC address for the Ethernet port and prompts for a new one:

Current Ethernet Address= 00-E0-75-1C-0E-18

New MAC Address

= *-**-**-**-**-**

3.Type the new MAC address. Press Escape any time to abort this task.

4.Reset the IAD (page 14) for the new MAC address to take effect.

Enabling and Disabling PPP Debug Mode

When you enable PPP debugging, the IAD displays PPP debug messages. To enable or disable PPP debugging, follow these steps:

1.Type E on the Debug menu. The IAD displays the PPP debug status:

PPP Debug Mode is currently DISABLED

2.Type E to enable PPP debugging, or type D to disable it.

The IAD sets PPP debug mode to the setting you entered, and displays the Debug menu.
