ROUTED-TRACE(8)

NAME
routed-trace - utility to switch trace logging on/off on routed running on remote machine

SYNOPSIS
routed-trace <on </path/to/tracefile>|off> <host1> [host2] [host3] ..

DESCRIPTION
Routed-trace is used to switch on/off trace logging on remote machine(s) running routed process. It sends UDP packet to remote routed process, running on host(s) given as argument(s), with RIPCMD_TRACEON or RIPCMD_TRACEOFF commands, depending on arguments described below.

As first argument, it takes either "on </path/to/tracefile>" or "off". In the case of "on", remote routed process will start trace logging to "</path/to/tracefile>". If "off" is given, and routed has started logging previously, it will be stopped. Otherwise, no action will be done.

Use of this tool will only have effect if the routed process running on remote machine runs with the -r flag.

Use of this tool is generally discouraged as its use can lead to unwanted compromise of the remote system.
