Use the VPN server trace

Allows you to configure, start, stop, and view the VPN Connection Manager and VPN Key Manager server traces. This is similar to using the TRCTCPAPP *VPN command from the character-based interface except that you can view the trace while a connection is active.

To view the VPN server trace, follow these steps:
  1. In iSeries™ Navigator, expand your server > Network > IP Policies.
  2. Right-click Virtual Private Networking, select Diagnostic Tools, and then Server Trace.

To specify what type of trace you want the VPN Key Manager and the VPN Connection Manager to generate, follow these steps:

  1. From the Virtual Private Networking Trace window, click  Options icon (Options).
  2. On the Connection Manager page, specify what type of trace you want the Connection Manager server to run.
  3. On the Key Manager page, specify what type of trace you want the Key Manager server to run.
  4. Click Help if you have questions about how complete a page or any of its fields.
  5. Click OK to save your changes.
  6. Click Start icon (Start) to start the trace. Click  Refresh icon (Refresh) periodically to view the latest trace information.
