Trace Outputs
Trace outputs may be used to monitor the internal processes in the cable modem during
or after configuration.
The trace outputs are slightly delayed behind the actual event, but are always in the
correct sequence. This will not usually hamper interpretation of the displays but should
be taken into consideration if making precise analyses.
How to start a trace
