This example displays only

mtrace

mtrace

response, the display is similar, but the complete

mtrace

response is also

displayed—exactly as it is displayed in

mtrace from-source

command output.

Table 126 on page 244 summarizes the output fields of the display.

Displaying Log and Trace Files from the CLI

You can enter the

monitor start

command to display real-time additions to system

logs and trace files:

user@host> monitor start filename

When the Services Router adds a record to the file specified by

filename

, the record

is displayed on the screen. For example, if you have configured a system log file
named

system-log

(by including the

syslog

statement at the [

edit system

] hierarchy

level), you can enter the

monitor start system-log

command to display the records

added to the system log.

To display a list of files that are being monitored, enter the

monitor list

command.

To stop the display of records for a specified file, enter the

monitor stop filename

command.
