Configuring the Activity Log

The Activity Log allows the real-time tracing activity of Gx and Rx protocol messages to be performed for a specific subscriber from multiple MPE devices.

After activation, traces for subscriber protocol messages are merged from all MPE devices in the network to the CMP system. Messages are selected for tracing based on subscriber identification.

Up to 100 subscriber IDs can be configured in the subscriber configuration window with tracing enabled or disabled. Tracing can be enabled for up to 20 subscribers.

After tracing is enabled, the following associated tasks can be performed:
  • Modify subscriber tracing configuration settings and add subscribers for tracing
  • Activate and deactivate trace log backup
  • View and export historical trace log data
  • View and export real-time trace data for up to 10 subscribers

See Subscriber Activity Log for information on performing these tasks.

  1. From the Global Configuration section of the navigation pane, select Global Configuration Settings.
