Debug (debug information) is a special log which can be used to monitor certain kinds of information, especially for problem-solving. Too much information could be confusing and impractical if displayed all at the same time. Usually, you only need to display information relating to a particular service or function. In addition, displaying too much information slows WinRoute's performance. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to monitor an essential part of information and during the shortest possible period only.
The window's context menu for the Debug log includes (see chapter 22.2 Logs Context Menu) further options for advanced settings of the log and for an on-click one-time view of status information.
Note: These options are available only to users with full administration rights for WinRoute (see chapter 15.1 Viewing and definitions of user accounts).
This function enables monitoring of packets according to the user defined log expression.
