NAME
track - start and stop displaying incoming and outgoing SAP
packets
SYNOPSIS
track on
track off
track tables
DESCRIPTION
You must be a privileged user to use track.
The track utility, when used with the on option, signals the
Service Access Protocol (SAP) daemon (sapd) to display all
server advertising packets that are received or sent.
This information is formatted according to whether the server
is receiving the information (IN), broadcasting the
information (OUT), or receiving a SAP request.
This information is sent to the device or file specified in
the nwcm(1M) sap_track_file configuration parameter. The
default value is /dev/console.
The track utility, when used with the off option, stops the
router from displaying incoming and outgoing SAP packets.
When used with the table option, track signals the SAP daemon
to dump the contents of its server table. The information is
sent to the file specified in the nwcm sap_dump_file
configuration parameter. The default value is sap.dump. This
file is found in the directory specified by the nwcm
log_directory parameter. The default is /var/netware.
EXAMPLES
Incoming information looks similar to the following:
IN [00D0C200:00001B026C09] 10:53:01am
MUTT 5
IN indicates that the message is incoming, the number in
brackets is the node address of the node sending the incoming
message, and is followed by the time of the message.
