This is a 4-byte (32-bit) object with each bit enabling/ disabling a particular type of trace/debug statement. On setting the following bit patterns on the Least Significant Bits of the debug object, the following type of debug statements will be displayed 0000 0000 0000 0001 - all memory related debug statements 0000 0000 0000 0010 - all timer messages 0000 0000 0000 0100 - all semaphore related messages 0000 0000 0010 0000 - all process related messages 0000 0000 0100 0000 - all SNMP related messages 0000 0010 0000 0000 - all miscellaneous messages 0000 0100 0000 0000 - all entry exit messages 0000 1000 0000 0000 - all interface related messages The following are the bit patterns of the Most Significant Bits to display the above mentioned messages module-wise 0001 0000 0000 0000 - displays messages from main module 0010 0000 0000 0000 - displays interface related messages 0100 0000 0000 0000 - displays process related debug messages The combination of all these bits will enable/disable particular debug statement in respective modules
