1Global Call Trace Parameters
 

Parameter

Length/Range

Description

callFilter

1-23

The name of a call trace filter to apply to the system trace data log file. This filter may be created, configured, and deleted. See Call Filter Parameters table below for details.

callTraceTimer1-360

Duration in minutes that call trace is enabled.

(default = 180)

errorFilter

N/A

Call error trace for SIP Call Traces only.

  • errorType– Type of error to log:
    • any – Log all SIP PDUs that meet the requirement of the parseerror, outofdialog, and early attempt options below.
    • earlyattempt – Logs incoming SIP PDUs that result in early termination of the call (by either the pre-parser or SIP signaling).
    • none – (default) No SIP PDU logging, including validation/parsing errors.
    • outofdialog – Log incoming syntactically correct SIP PDUs (except INVITE) that do not belong to an existing dialog.
    • parsError – Log received SIP PDUs that fail parsing. If an error is detected by SIP signaling, the accompanying PDUs is not associated with any dialog, including an existing dialog. Hence all in dialog and out of dialog PDUs are assigned to this category. If an error is detected at the front end pre-parser, the PDU is logged and not forwarded to SIP signaling to prevent logging an offending PDU by both the pre-parser and SIP signaling.

maxTriggerCount

0-64

Maximum number of calls that match the callFilter criteria and the errorFilter type that may be logged to the .TRC file, per slot. When this limit is reached on a module in a particular slot, this parameter value becomes 0 and matching events are no longer logged. To re-enable logging, you must issue a CLI command that configures this parameter to a nonzero value.

(default = 0)

signalingPacketCapture

N/A

Specifies the signaling packet capture devices and the admin state. These files are saved as .pkt files. The options are:

  • devices– List of devices for signaling packet capture. The options are:
    •  mgmt0
    • mgmt1
    • pkt0
    • pkt1
    • pkt2
    • pkt3
  • <VLAN tag> – Enter VLAN tag of the device used for signaling capture (or enter "0" for no VLAN).

Parameter

Description

callDetailCapture 

Specifies whether the call details are captured or not. The files are saved as ".out" files.

  • disable (default)
  • enable
key

Choose one or more active key components for this filter:

  • called
  • calling
  • cddn
  • contractor
  • peerIpAddress
  • redirecting
  • transferCapability
  • trunkGroup
level 

 The trace level of this call trace entry.

  • level1 – Trace everything.
  • level2 (default) – Trace everything but raw hex dumps.
  • level3 – Trace only external message information (ISDN/ ISUP/CAS etc.) and errors.
  • level4Trace all SIP Protocol Data Unit (PDU) calls (without logging other trace messages) at the line-rate without any dropping any SIP PDUs.

Note

Level 4 Call Trace Filter conditions/behavior:

  • Level 4 filters based ONLY on peerIpAddress. This call trace method does not trace/filter based on trunk group, called number, calling number, etc.
  • Configure a Level 4 filter with a wildcard peerIpAddress of 255.255.255.255 to match ALL packets to/from any IP address.
  • Level 4 filters identify GCID when possible. However, some messages do not contain GCIDs and may have 0xfffffffff as the GCID (registration, notify, options ping, etc.).
match

Use this keyword to specify criteria to use to capture call data upon a match. Options are:

  • called – Called number being traced. (range: 0-30).
  • calling – Calling number being traced. (range: 0-30).
  • cddn – Called directory number being traced. (range: 0-30).
  • contractor – Contractor number being traced. (range: 0-30).

  • peerIpAddress – The peer IPv4 or IPv6 address for call tracing.
  • redirecting – The redirecting number being traced (default is "").
  • transferCapability – Transfer capability of the call trace filter. Options are:
    • audio31Khz – 3.1 kHz Audio – ITC 3.1 kHz audio calls are traced.
    • speech – ITC Speech based calls are traced.
    • unrestricted – (default) Calls with ITC Unrestricted are traced.
    • unrestrictedWithTones – Calls with ITC Unrestricted Digital Information With Tones Announcements are traced.
    • video – Calls with ITC Video are traced.
  • trunkGroup – Trunk group name to match against.
Note
For called, calling, cddn, contractor parameters, use "X" or "x" wildcard character to match any single digit, and "%" symbol to match any digits from that point forward.
For example, using "978xxx1212" returns all calls between 9780001212 and 9789991212, and using "978%" returns all calls with a 978 prefix.
mediaPacketCapture 

Specifies whether to enable or disable media packet capture settings. These files will be stored as ".pkt"files.

  • disable (default)
  • enable

state

Administrative state of this filter:

  • disabled (default) – Call filter is off. In this state no calls will be traced by this filter. The filter must be in this state to change its configuration.
  • enabled – When enabled, all calls are processed by this filter for possible inclusion in the system trace data log file.

stopMatch 

 Use this flag to stop matching filter profiles once a match is found:

  • unsupported (default) – Continue matching filter profiles even after a match is found (up to three profiles can be matched).
  • supported – Stop matching filter profiles once a match is made.
