Re: Traceback message [7:39887]

Tracebacks are HEX dumps that, when decoded, tell the exact story of
which process or harwdare/software components and routine casued the
problem. Usually in case of exception or crash.
IOS Developers use so called "symbol files:" to decode these messages.
They build the symbol files when the IOS image is built.

Tracebacks are generally baaad, they report internl errors, usually
sofware and are most useful to TAC engineers who can run them thru their
secret decoder ring and identify what process caused said errors.

  This particular bug doesn't seem as catastrophic but I wouldn't worry
too much about disabling fast switching on a dialer interface until a
bug fix is available or of coarse you can backrev.

Also, assuming your dialer interfaces are relatively low speed, disabling
fast switching on the dialer interface really won't impact the performance
of that link.  It might increase CPU usage, but again, if it's a slower
link, it won't cause a huge increase.

Traceback message [7:39887]

2002-03-29 Thread David Wong

I have read a caveat of IOS 12.2(8)T and it mentions about traceback
message. What is a traceback message? How bad is it? Does it relate to
performance, security or other issues? Does it worth to sacrifice CEF
in order to stop traceback messages? Thanks!

If the fast switching is enabled on a dialer interface, traceback
messages are generated with every echo reply.

Workaround: Disable fast switching on the dialer interface.
