Routing

Hi Anyone can explain the command "set snmp traceoptions file/flag"? or send a link here for Ex router?

set snmp traceoptions file size 10m
set snmp traceoptions file files 2
set snmp traceoptions file world-readable
set snmp traceoptions flag all
set snmp traceoptions flag pdu

Thank you

Hi,

file - To specify properties [e.g size of file or files 2=number of files to keep when rotated] or name of the traceoptions file

flag - To specify snmp properties that will be logged in the traceoptions debugging

Thank you so much for your reply.

If we use the command "deactivate snmp traceoptions" what would happen? I guess the below commands would lose function, and other functions of SNMP still exsit, right? 

Hi,

'deactivate snmp traceoptions' would deactivate the traceoptions debugging functionality for snmp protocol.

snmp would still operate.

Yes, I agree with you. I think the below five commands is relative with log file. When I add "decctivate snmp traceoption", these below five commands would lose their functionality, right? Thank you

set snmp traceoptions file files 2
set snmp traceoptions file size 10m
set snmp traceoptions file world-readable
set snmp traceoptions flag all
set snmp traceoptions flag pdu

 Hi,

traceoptions would be inactive and since the rest are child of traceoptions hierarchy, they would be deactivated form the config too. Example:

inactive: traceoptions {
    file test size 2m;
}
