I have used the comms trace many times to debug comms applications - mainly
appc/sna and bsc. Very good & usefull.
However I tried using it last week to debug a TCP/IP session that was
transitting SSL data and the trace data was garbage.
I quite expected that, but I am interested if it can be done, maybe I have
the wrong settings.

I would also add that with V5R1 you can also specify the target IP address
to trace.

RE: Comm Trace






You initiate a comm trace for all protocols the same, look in the system
service tools. (STRSST).  You trace a comm line resource name, and that
line
can have multiple protocols running on it (ie TCP/IP and SNA over Ethernet
can run on the same ethernet comm resource).  When you print the trace,
you
can specify what protocols you want printed.
A comm trace is pretty close to putting a data scope on a line.  It traces
all control characters including protocol control characters, framing
info,
etc.

HI What is a comm trace? Is it done the same on all types of protocols, or
different depending. Tanks, Rob
