What to do next
The commands request platform software trace filter-binary and show platform software trace
filter-binary work in a similar way. The only difference is:
Note
• request platform software trace filter-binary - Sources the data from historical logs.
• show platform software trace filter-binary – Sources the data from the flash Temp directory.
Of these, mac_log <..date..> is the most important file, as it gives the messages for the MAC we are debugging.
The command show platform software trace filter-binary also generates the same flash files, and also prints
the mac_log on the screen.
