Command
Debug
Use
This is a very useful but sometimes dangerous command. It allows you to see how the router or switch processes many different protocols.
If your not careful you can lock yourself out of the device, or even lockup the router/switch so no further traffic will pass!!!!

Example
Since there are many different debugging options, we have added a debugging section with some of the more useful debugs for a CCNA candidate.
|
R2#debug ip packet |
You can filter debugs using access-lists to help reduce the output and ease the load on the router.
|
R2(config)#access-list 101 permit icmp any any |
