Logging Actions of the IPv4 Routing Daemon
If you suspect a malfunction of the IPv4 routing daemon, routed, you can start a log that traces the daemon's activity. The log includes all of the packet transfers when you start the routed daemon.
Create a log file that traces the routing daemon's actions as follows:
# /usr/sbin/in.routed /var/log-file-name
 | Caution - On a busy network, this command can generate almost continuous output. |
The following example shows the beginning of the log that is created when you perform the Logging Actions of the IPv4 Routing Daemon procedure.
