Logging Network Problems

If you suspect a routing daemon malfunction, you can log its actions, including all packet transfers. To create a log file of routing daemon actions, supply a file name when you start up the routed daemon. For example:


# /usr/sbin/in.routed /var/routerlog


Caution - Caution -

On a busy network, this can generate almost continuous output.
