Chapter 6 Troubleshooting the System
Using Cable Interface debug Commands
Using Cable Interface debug Commands
To troubleshoot cable interfaces, use the following
debug
commands in enable (privileged EXEC) mode.
Caution
The following commands can generate large amounts of output as the number of cable modems
grows. On heavily loaded systems with thousands of CMs, these commands can dramatically affect
router performance.
debug cable arp
To activate the debugging of Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests on the cable interfaces, use
the
debug cable arp
command in privileged EXEC mode. To deactivate debugging of ARP requests,
use the
no
form of this command.
debug cable arp
When this command is activated, all cable ARP request messages are displayed on the
Cisco uBR10012 router console.
debug cable error (for MAC Protocol Errors)
To display errors that occur in the cable MAC protocols, use the
debug cable error
command in
privileged EXEC mode. To disable debugging output, use the
no
form of this command.
debug cable error
no debug cable error
When this command is activated, all cable ARP request messages are displayed on the
Cisco uBR10012 router console. When this command is activated, any errors that occur in the cable
MAC protocol are displayed on the Cisco uBR10012 router console.
debug cable keyman (for Baseline Privacy Activity)
To activate the debugging of key encryption key (KEK) and traffic encryption key (TEK) BPI key
management, use the
debug cable keyman
command in privileged EXEC mode. To disable debugging
output, use the
no
form of this command.
debug cable keyman
no debug cable keyman
When this command is activated, all activity related to KEK and TEK keys appears on the
Cisco uBR10012 router console.
debug cable mac-messages
To activate the debugging of messages generated in the cable MAC that frames and encrypts downstream
RF signals, use the
debug cable mac-messages
command in privileged EXEC mode. To deactivate the
debugging of cable MAC messages, use the
no
form of this command.
debug cable mac-messages
no debug cable mac-messages
When this command is activated, messages generated by the cable MAC are displayed on the
Cisco uBR10000 series console.
Command
Purpose
debug cable ?
Displays all debug cable commands that are available.
undebug all
Turns off all debugging information to the console and chooses a more selective
debug
command.
Note
Refer to the
debug
commands that follow.
