Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C170 Guia Do Utilizador

View a subset of key statistics.

The System Status page provides a detailed representation of all real-time mail and DNS activity 
for the system. You can also reset the counters for system statistics and view the last time the 
counters were reset. 

On the System Trace page, you can debug the flow of messages through the system by emulating 
sending a test message. You can emulate a message as being accepted by a listener and print a 
summary of features that would have been “triggered” or affected by the current configuration of the 
system.

You can use System Administration > Trace page (the equivalent of the 

trace

 command in the CLI) to 

debug the flow of messages through the system by emulating sending a test message. The Trace page 
(and 

trace

 CLI command) emulates a message as being accepted by a listener and prints a summary of 

features that would have been “triggered” or affected by the current configuration (including 
uncommitted changes) of the system. The test message is not actually sent. The Trace page (and 

trace

 

CLI command) can be a powerful troubleshooting or debugging tool, especially if you have combined 
many of the advanced features available on the Cisco IronPort appliance. 

The Trace page (and 

trace

 CLI command) prompts you for the input parameters listed in 

Source IP 
address

Type the IP address of the remote client to 
mimic the source of the remote domain. This 
can be an Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) 
or version 6 (IPv6) address.

Note: The 

trace

 command prompts for an IP 

address and a fully-qualified domain name. It 
does not attempt to reverse the IP address to 
see if it matches the fully-qualified domain 
name. The 

trace

 command does not allow 

the fully-qualified domain name field to be 
blank, so it is impossible to test a scenario 
where the DNS does not reverse match 
properly. 

Fully Qualified 
Domain Name 
of the Source IP

Type the fully-qualified remote domain name 
to mimic. If left null, a reverse DNS lookup 
will be performed on the source IP address.

Listener to Trace 
Behavior on

Choose from the list of listeners configured 
on the system to emulate sending the test 
message to.
