B Level 2 Tracing SS7
SS7 tracing is useful when there are issues with carrier interoperation; it allows a
hex dump to be captured and decoded. Tracing is only available on the SS7 Card,
and is accessed via command line on the Solaris processor that contains the SS7
Stack.
Note
: The L2tool is used as a debugging tool mainly to troubleshoot a particular test
case failure scenario. It is not recommended to run this tool for long time on a live
system, since this will affect the performance of the SS7 Interface board.
It is not possible to relate the logs dumped from L2tool to the AccessAlarm logs
because the time that is displayed in the AccessAlarm logs is the system time
whereas the time displayed by L2tool output is the time the stack was started. This
time is cumulative and is reset when the Stack is restarted. The time displayed in the
L2tool is in milliseconds.
Standards to follow when breaking down SS7 messages.
