Chapter 5 Cisco CMTS Debugging Commands
debug packetcable gate
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to enable debugging for the individual PacketCable functional systems on the
Cisco CMTS. As a general rule, selectively use these commands to debug or troubleshoot problems
instead of turning on all debugging with the
debug packetcable all
command.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)BC1 and later, you must also enable debugging for one or more IP
addresses, using the
debug packetcable subscriber
command, before the
debug packetcable gate
command displays any output. The
debug packetcable gate events process
command is an exception
to this, however, because it does not display subscriber-related information.
Note
The
debug packetcable all
command is equivalent to repeatedly giving the
debug packetcable gate
command with each of its possible options.
Tip
To display detailed debugging output in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)BC1 and later releases, use the
verbose
option when you enable PacketCable debugging output using the
debug packetcable
subscriber
command.
Examples
This section shows typical examples for each type of debugging message.
Commit Event Debugging
The following example shows typical debugging messages for the commit events on a gate. Omit the
verbose
option if you do not want to display the header and message contents.
